...fairly soft 9/18 b&m game...i'm otb with AsJs and raise an early and a mid-late limper (early player unknown; mid-late callst)...sb c-calls (strong player), bb folds and both limpers call...
flop: QsThTd
sb checks...early checks...late-mid bets and i raise hoping to steal (against 3 players, i know) or at least get a cheap idea if i am drawing dead...a re-raise and i fold, but everyone calls so i wait until the turn to find out if someone is slowplaying a boat...
turn is Ks...everyone checks...i bet and only sb calls...now i put him on T9s, maybe KQ...AT...JT..99...even...JJ
so heads-up with nut straight, drawing to nut flush and royal...
river is 7s. sb checks, i bet, he raises, i re-raise, he calls with Ts9s...
make the fold on flop? how to handle paired flop with gutshots/backdoor nut flush/runner/runner royal and other longshots when otb?
thanks
lucky turn
