Ok, it's surprising I win at all considering how I played this, I know...but help me out here. By the way, this question is not specific to this particular hand, but in general..threeway on turn, middle position. you have a pretty good hand and one player is nearly all in (and it's 50/50 whether you split with him or lose) and the other player is probably on a draw.
Anyway, turn completes my str8, and I'm thinking that I'm splitting the pot with SB at that moment (redraws threehanded on a $50-table is not something I'm really worried about against a shortstack). I tried to keep the SB in here, but I'm not really sure whether to call or raise.
Seat 4 is the button
Total number of players : 3
Seat 4: Hero ( $55.80 )
Seat 5: SB ( $48.65 )
Seat 3: BB ( $17.55 )
SB posts small blind [$0.25].
BB posts big blind [$0.50].
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Hero [ Jh Jd 3d Kd ]
Hero raises [$1].
SB calls [$0.75].
BB calls [$0.50].
** Dealing Flop ** [ Jc, 9c, Qh ]
SB checks.
BB bets [$2.85].
Hero calls [$2.85].
SB calls [$2.85].
** Dealing Turn ** [ Ts ]
SB checks.
BB bets [$11].
Hero calls [$11].
SB calls [$11].
** Dealing River ** [ 2s ]
SB checks.
BB is all-In [$2.70]
Hero raises [$5.40].
SB folds.
Results below in white. By the way, first person that explains how I get the damn converter to work is my personal hero for the day.
<font color="white">
Hero shows [ Jh, Jd, 3d, Kd ] a straight, nine to king.
BB doesn't show [ 2d, 8s, 4c, Js ] a straight, eight to queen.
Hero wins $2.70 from side pot #1 with a straight, nine to king.
Hero wins $48.95 from the main pot with a straight, nine to king.
And yes, there's no justice in poker.
