Last hand of night... Solid table. Nothing spectacular, standard weak-tight table... people bet their hands...
Stack sizes of the players involved are approximately equal ~1 full buy-in
0.10-0.25 NL 10-Handed...
Hero is in BB with K/images/graemlins/heart.gif K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG+1 raises to 0.50
UTG+2 calls 0.50
MP+1 calls 0.50
MP+3 calls 0.50
folds to me in BB, (pot size $2.35)
Obviously I kicked in a raise here, wanted enough to drive out a weak ace, maybe even take it down here most of the time... but ideally wanted to get it down to HU or 3-handed at worst...
Hero raises to $3
UTG+1 calls 2.50
UTG+2 calls 2.50
MP+1 calls 2.50
MP+2 calls 2.50
Worst possible situation... but you get this kind of BS at low stakes. I raise only to be flat called by 4 players.. on the other hand, I figure I have any strong/weak ace further dominated as probably 1 or more players holds Ax...
Pot is now $15
Flop is A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif A/images/graemlins/heart.gif 3/images/graemlins/club.gif
Bad flop multi-way for KK. I bet out $6 here, on the off chance nobody has tripped up... I saw no need to put in a larger bet, as at this point I am either WA/WB and this bet should either take it down or will get called, in which case I am toast.
Folds to MP+2, who calls. I cannot see this dude calling/trapping with anything less than 33 or Ax... so I'm pretty much done here...
Turn is a brick... I give up here and check/fold to a weakish size bet $10, but would have pretty much put me AI. Seemed like he wanted a call, so I just folded.
Looking back, my pfr was a bit weak... figured a pot-sized bet would definately clear out the junk, but I was probably up against 2/3 lower PPs who called for set value and an ace-rag suited, etc...
