I was playing the 55's tonight and they were a breeze...
One table was at the bubble with 50/100 blinds lol!!
As for your hand, i liked the way you played it, but i think calling the bet on the turn was a bad idea, i think its either raise or fold there.

Btw: any1 know who DoYouSeaWhy is?

This is an interesting hand to discuss the merits of betting out from the blinds. Lately I've been more careful about betting out of the blinds because I feel it doesn't give me the information it is supposed to. If someone raises my bet I don't know nada. However, if I checkraise and someone reraises, then I know they are strong.

Having said this, I like your flop bet, I imagine you would have pushed to a reraise? The turn bet, I don't know though. Someone could have flopped a straight or turned a straight. I understand it's a protection bet but it builds the pot so much that the river bet is impossible to call.

I'd check-raise the flop. No need to bet out here, in my opinion.

What makes you so sure someone is going to bet?

Who cares if they don't - you have a vulnerable hand, OOP, and you can improve to the nuts for free. I fail to see a problem here.
