Here's a hand where I do something I've been meaning to do more often.

Reads:
MP1 is a pretty aggressive player, slightly loose, reasonable postflop.
MP2 is a donator.

Preflop: Hero is BB with K/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, SB calls.

Flop: (19 SB) 2/images/graemlins/club.gif, 5/images/graemlins/club.gif, 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, MP2 calls, CO folds, SB folds, Hero calls.

He could raise an overpair, top pair, or a flush draw here. I call planning to c/r any non-crub turn.

Turn: (12.50 BB) 4/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.

It's a Swiss fu<font color="pink"></font>cking watch!

River: (18.50 BB) 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.

Final Pot: 21.50 BB

Is this standard?

Very nice!

Your plan is fuc[/i]king ingenious, if I understand it correctly.

Nice hand. Sure sucks when the turn gets checked through (damn the free card play!), but I really like your line of thought.

I planned to c/r a non-scary turn. Figuring that MP2 is calling either way and knowing from my read on MP1 that he will not check through on the turn often at all. He is likely even to semi-bluff if he does have a flush draw (which I considered less likely than an overpair like TT or JJ).

His play was fairly predictable and this play was based on that read. It would be a very questionable play without it.
