I was running well at a good 20-40 game (passive with 5-6 players seeing flops). There are 2 limpers to me in CO+1 and I call with 5 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif 7 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif . Hope this isn't too bad a call in late position. Button raises. He's a big fish who plays pretty loose and aggressive. He doesn't raise with awful cards though, and I put him on any pocket pair or any two big cards. SB folds, BB calls, limpers call, and I call. 5 to the flop.

Checked to the button who bets. BB calls, limpers both fold, and I call (just one time /forums/images/icons/wink.gif ). The turn brings a beautiful:

BB checks, I bet instead of going for a check-raise because the button might only have AK and may check behind. Button calls my bet and says out loud, "You already have a straight, huh". I don't reply and the BB also calls. 3 to the river:

BB checks, I bet my nuts, and button raises!!! BB folds muttering something about diamonds and of course I reraise. He asks again, "Do you have a straight? Well, I can't beat a straight" and calls. I was so hoping that he had pocket aces to reraise, but I wasn't that lucky. Of course my hand was good and he showed A10 for top two pair.
My friend was watching this hand and told me it was so freaking obvious that I either had the straight on the turn or hit a set. My bet on the river signaled that I wasn't afraid of a made two pair with aces. Luckily, the button didn't make this read and gave me an extra $80. I thought he already knew what I had and would only make a crying call...LOL!
