Would you have backed off?

Party 3/6. No read on the opponent in question in this hand. (MP2)

Dealt 8 /images/graemlins/spade.gif, 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif on the BB. EP calls, MP calls, MP2 (poster) checks, LP raises, folded to me and I call, rest call. 5 to the Flop for 10sb.

Flop: T /images/graemlins/spade.gif 9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 8 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

All check to LP who bets, and I raise. Everyone calls. 5 to the Turn for 20sb (10bb).

Turn: T /images/graemlins/heart.gif

I bet, all call to MP2 who raises, LP folds. I re-raise, EP and MP fold, MP2 caps, and I call. I put him on a slowplayed QJ at this point, maybe an AT or KT or something. 2 to the River for 20bb.

River: J /images/graemlins/club.gif

I bet, he raises, I re-raise, he caps. I begin to worry. Results later.

I would have just called his river raise. T9, T8 and JT are all very possible hands that crush you.

LOL, the river cap finally got to you? You should have been worried sooner! /images/graemlins/frown.gif

Yeah, you guys are right. However, I would have felt justified if he had flipped over QJ instead of T9. /images/graemlins/wink.gif But of course most people wouldn't play QJ like that... :O
