I felt like a complete moron on this hand. In my defense, I suck.

Pre flop: Well, I guess this was ok. When it got to me the first time it was looking like it would be 5 to the flop for two bets.

Flop: I think I should have capped here, but not capping I think...

Turn: I really need to raise here. I really felt like I needed to hit my boat to win. With 5 people going to the flop, I was affraid of a made flush or even a set of nines, but I think I am being to paranoid here, and that I could see this sort of action from over pairs or top pair protecting their hand or the nut flush draw. Deer, meet headlights.

River: I don't think calling is bad here, since I think there is a good chance I am beat and if I am not that UTG wont pay off a raise. (Maybe he will though, if he has something like A /images/graemlins/heart.gif 9 and he thinks I was drawing at the flush.) Man I wish I had capped the flop and bet / raised the turn. As it was I have reduced myself to a spectator.

Flame away, I may shame myself into improving eventually.

if you clicked 'raise any' for the whole hand every time you flopped a set it would be closer to correct than not raising the turn/river here.
