I have $197 to start this hand and the BB starts with $130. BB bought in for $100 6 hands ago.

UTG folds and the next two players limp to me on the button. I call with the Q /images/graemlins/club.gif8 /images/graemlins/club.gif and the blinds limp along.

5 to the flop for $9.50

Flop comes Q, A, 8 with two spades. SB checks, BB bets $6, two folds to me and I raise to $20. SB folds and BB calls.

Heads-up to the turn for $47.50

Turn is an offsuit K, BB leads out for $25, I make it $65 and the BB calls.

Heads-up to the river for $177

River is an ugly 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif making the possible flush draw. BB pushes for $42.40. Yuck, Yuckity, Yuck, Yuck, Yuck.

Call/Fold river? Bigger raise on flop or turn?

raise to $30-40 on the flop. bottom two on a draw heavy board requires big protection.

his turn leads is likely a straight or better two pair,
call or push
