ehhh..I don't know if I dig the PF call... I mean easily with a suited connector but that's just...random suited junk.
The post-flop play is fine

I'd only play it on the button with completely ideal conditions.

I held my mouse pointer over the fold, but I decided to back myself a little more.

I think I would also call this PF. Like you said, only if it played out perfectly to you....as it did.

preflop is marginal
postflop looks fine to me.
You have 5.5 outs on the flop (BDFD, 2 5's, 2 9's) and you are getting 10:1 on your call.
On the turn you have 13 outs (9 /images/graemlins/heart.gifs 2 5's 2 9's) and are getting 8:1

any specific question?

[Kumubou]

I wouldn't play this pre-flop either; suited junk is only worth playing out of the small blind for half a bet.

I also fold this flop. Low middle pair with a ton of overcards to worry about (reverse implied odds, right?) and a backdoor flush that's only good ~1 in 25 times.

[edit: err, I'm an idiot. You also have five outs to two pair or better, with the pot offering 10:1 odds. You can take a card off here.]

Turn and river were fine, though.

I think small suited 2 gappers is really the worst hand i'll call in this situation, I think this is also a PF fold.

[ArturiusX]

Mostly preflop input.

[gchaos]

I would like to hear the argument for calling pre-flop, because I will fold this 100% of the time. Something like T8s, sure. But 95s??? No way.

[NAU_Player]

given that there is no preflop agression, you have 6 people along for the ride, and your 9 high flush draw with a triple gutshot straight possibiltiy will have position throughout the hand, I'd say if you are ever going to play 9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/heart.gif this is the time.

really, REALLY loose call on the button. not recommended most of the time. hardly any of the time.

now that you've got a flop, i'd semi-bluff raise it.

For what reason would you semibluff this?

[TALLBrad]

I typically wouldn't play this pre-flop, but given the limpers to you there are enough for this "on the draw" hand.

Agree with the flop call. Interesting on the Turn you could have tried a raise, given all of your outs and value of the pot. Although most of the time I'd just call too.

[gchaos]

That's just it, I would never play 95s outside of the blinds.

[ArturiusX]

I was thinking about a raise briefly, but some of my outs aren't good enough to make a raise profitable. And thats provided that everyone called.
