laydown straight?

[Laughingboy]

I felt like this was a pretty clear laydown at the time, but now I'm wondering if anyone else has another opinion. In retrospect, it looks too wussy. (Note that I planned to raise the turn bet until MP2 called.)

I don't see how you can lay this down here. If you're behind to a boat on the flop, then the turn doesn't change anything unless someone has a flush. In retrospect, the fold was probably good, given the river card, but if I'm calling on the flop, I'm pushing on the turn.

The flop was checked around. It was the caller that made me think twice -- looked to me like a low flush draw who got a free card and hit. As i said, if it were only one bettor I would have raised.

But yes, the river made me glad I folded here.

Folding isn't bad either, I suppose, since you're either way ahead or way behind (and if you're ahead, you're highly subject to redraws). At least you didn't call, which would have been worst of all. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Betting is so small, its not worth worrying about flush draws against ur straight. I would call.
