This was a strange hand.
I Had just sat down at this table and was amazed at the number of chasers in every hand. As long as noone raised, people just kept calling. So when I got a big hidden hand I ended up calling down.

This is where i wimped out. WHen the better bet right into the 3 clubs, I figured he might have trips. When the flush didn't raise, I should have raised, but I didn't want to have to call a reraise.

Once again, he bet right into everyone. I figured he might have started with 3 spades with the Qs in hole and had just made his flush, so I wimped out on the raise again.

When I hit the straight on the river, I decided to just call once more, not wanting to risk a reraise. He could have made his flush if he hadn't already made it, or he could have filled up his trips or two pair.
Results:
Seat 2: balance $20, lost $24.5 [ Qd 2s Ks Qc 6s 4s Qh ] [ three of a kind, queens -- Ks,Qd,Qc,Qh,6s ]
Hero: balance $222, bet $24.5, collected $99.5, net +$75 [ 3h 3s 5s 3c 2h 4h 6h ] [ a straight, two to six -- 6h,5s,4h,3h,2h ]
Seat 8: balance $55.5, lost $24.5 [ Ts 8s 9s 2d 9c Th Ah ] [ two pairs, tens and nines -- Ah,Ts,Th,9s,9c ]
I'm assuming the bettor had 'shuffle cards' on and had trip Qs on 4th street. Either that or he was a total maniac.
