Extremely expensive draw.

only have about 6 hands on UTG and CO. SB is TA-N.
I'm pretty sure my course of action is pretty standard and the pot was always right for me to call all those huge raises. Any comments on any betting round are very much apreciated.

I really dont like your flop bet. You have a chance to get a free card and with so many people in, theres a good chance the flop hit someone youre going to be check raised.

[tac252]

thats a good point. I also gave a chance to let the preflop raiser check raise. this was a pretty big mistake. thanks.

I would really like to see the results of this hand...all the checking on the river is hilarious after the fast action of the flop and turn.

[elindauer]

Played well on every street. I'm sure you wished you'd taken the free card on the flop, but I think betting (for value) is correct. After that, you have to keep calling, as the pot is huge and you're getting your price on every decision.

Bluff the river? You'll fail so often, it's painful. Will you succeed more than 1 time in 30? You've screamed flush draw, maybe you convince someone to make a heroic fold. Make the desperation bluff. You'll be surprised once in a while, which is all it takes here.


Good luck.

SB had 88 for the set and a 122 dollar pot at 2/4.
I guess the flush card scared him into checking the river.

I love SB's preflop raise.

Flop bet is good, bummer that SB pulled the c/r.
