PokerRoom 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Small blind is a rock, MP2 is sLA-A, BB i have no reads on.

Preflop: garion 888 is CO with 5s, 5c.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, garion888 calls, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB caps</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls, garion888 calls, SB calls.

I thought about dropping when it was two cold to me, because I've played with the SB alot...but i figured MP2 was subsidizing my call.

Flop: (13 SB) 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">garion888 caps</font>, SB calls, BB calls, MP2 calls.

Now I know I have the best hand but am a little worried about the heart draw and deuces. I just keep raising and hope the hand holds up.

Turn: (14.50 BB) Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, BB calls, MP2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">garion888 raises</font>, SB calls, BB calls, MP2 folds.

This is a kinda scary card. I start thinking about the SB, if i lose set over set its upsetting, but i can deal with it. Keep raising.


River: (21.50 BB) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">garion888 bets</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, SB calls.

This is an uber scary card. I wouldn't have them but i could see someone with diamonds. AKd, AJd, ATd could all be looking for that deuce early on. Pocket queens, and pocket jacks are also possible hands. Calling the check-raise is obvious. But I only called because i was worried about queens or jacks.

Final Pot: 26.50 BB

EDIT: I'm removing the results

Don't include results. Fold pre-flop. Everything else looked okay to me.

Preflop: i fold the first time when it's two to me, if I felt frisky and for some reason called, when it gets capped behind me by a rock and a player who's only slightly loose, I fold twice over.

Since you didn't fold, the rest of the hand is fine although:

You mean you were worried he didn't have Queens or Jacks here??

Don't include the results at the end.

I meant i didn't fold because the pot was huge, and i didn't raise because i was worried about queens or jacks.

Sorry for the confusion /images/graemlins/smile.gif
