Hi guys,
This hand happened in a multi-table limit tournament over at planet poker (I haven't played there in a while, but I was using up some planet points...this was one of those 'points' tournaments with a cash payout to the final table).
My main opponent in this hand is a fairly agressive maniac. He's been raising almost every hand he comes in for and showing down a lot of garbage hands (53o comes to mind).
It's still relatively early (the second round), Limits are 2/5/10/10, but stacks started out between 100-300. My current stack is around 250.
I'm in LMP with T9s I limp after two callers, maniac is right behind me and comes in for a raise. CO calls, SB & BB both fold, two previous limpers (and myself) all call.
5 to see the Flop: Q, K, J rainbow, I flopped the lower half of the nut straight.
Checked to me I bet, maniac just calls, CO, EP, and MP call.
Five to the turn which is a blank (a four to complete the rainbow)
I bet, maniac raises, CO calls, EP and MP fold, I three bet, maniac calls, CO calls.
Three to the River: J, pairing the board
I bet, maniac raises, CO folds, I three bet, maniac caps, I call.
Results and my thought process in the post below. I'll give you a hint, he didn't have garbage this time. /forums/images/icons/mad.gif
