When Santos capped it I knew I was done but called it anyways. Up until then I thought it was likely I had the best hand, the most likely hands I expected to be shown were TT or KK.

I think Santos made a marginal call to my flop-raise. Once he made it to the turn though he picked up enough outs to take it to the river. He flipped QJ/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.

With the gutshot draw and the two overcards, I think his flop call of your raise was fine. You gotta figure if he caught a Q or J he could check raise the turn.

Whoops, no gutshot there. Sorry. Still, I don't think it's bad to call for one more SB there.

it's not directly a gutshot draw. not sure what this would be called... "running gutshot draw" or "backdoor gutshot draw"?

board:
6 7 9 J Q

i believe Doyle called it a double bellie buster gutshot draw. I could be a little off but im close.

It wasn't a gutshot draw, I misread the action and edited my post.

double bellie buster gutshot draw
That would be this:

You hold 10-5 and the board is
4-7-8-J
