My original thoughts in blue, my hindsight thoughts in red...
I know I screwed it up the first time. The hand has been haunting me today so I want to make sure I've got the right train of thought on it now.

Guelph: calls 800
<font color="blue">At the time I'm thinking MP1 probably has either 2 high cards, a decent Ace or another PP. I'm probably at a coinflip at best. </font>
<font color="red"> I should be thinking if it's a coinflip, if I'm willing to gamble I should give a raise here to isolate, and decide if he re-raises whether or not to play. If I'm not willing to gamble I can fold if he re-raises. I should raise to? 2400???</font>
Button: folds
SB: calls 700
<font color="blue"> He's been in a lot of pots, could be any 2 suited, any 2 straight, any 2 high cards... </font>
BB: calls 600
<font color="blue"> Pot odds were enough for any two here. </font>
Pot is 3425
*** FLOP *** [9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 5 /images/graemlins/club.gif]
<font color="blue"> Not a bad flop, no flush draws, and while the pair is over mine, at least the odd card is under mine. </font>
SB: checks
BB: checks
MP1: checks
Guelph: bets 2000
<font color="blue"> Maybe they all missed and I can pick this up here. </font>
<font color="red"> If I had raised preflop, a big PP would've shown itself by now, and most hands holding a 9 should've folded. </font>
SB: raises 2000 to 4000
<font color="blue"> Crap. Why did I let him catch a hand here? </font>
<font color="red"> Crap. I'm screwed here, right? I have to call, right? </font>
BB: folds
MP1: calls 4000
<font color="blue"> Pot odds with any draw? </font>
Guelph: raises 4173 to 8173 and is all-in
<font color="blue"> I just hope it's still a race.. </font>
<font color="red"> Run away!! Run away!! Run away!! </font>
SB: raises 7865 to 16038 and is all-in
MP1: calls 4575 and is all-in
