5-10 online. A maniac is in the game, seems to be capping every hand. The other players seems like they are desperate to come in to pots with him so its a great game.
UTG calls, next player folds, maniac raises. Next player cold-calls. Folded to me in the cutoff+1 with 5 /images/graemlins/club.gif4 /images/graemlins/club.gif and I cold-call too... expecting that 5-7 players sees the flop for 2 bets. Even though there is a risk that it will be capped (it will if someone re-raises)
Is my call okey or is it too loose?
The hand worked out Great, btw. Six players saw the flop for two bets. The flop came:
5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif2 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif6 /images/graemlins/club.gif
An ok flop, giving me middle pair with a gutshot. They all checked to me, strange. I bet ... hoping to get a few players out. Unfortunately, I was check-reraised when it came back to me and I called two bets cold. (The maniac were the check-reraiser)
four players to the turn for three bets each.
The turn were the perfect card for me: 3 /images/graemlins/club.gif
Giving me the straight with the straightflush draw.
UTG checks, maniac bets, next player called. I raised. I got a cold-caller before the maniac made it three bets. The original caller called once again before I capped it.
Four saw the river for four bets each.
Rivercard was the 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif giving me the straight flush.
UTG checked, maniac bet, next player folded and I raised. UTG folded but maniac re-raised and I of course capped it. He called.
Hand history showed that he had K /images/graemlins/heart.gif9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif
I cant complain regarding the action he gave me on the turn and river.
I apologize that the hand is a little bit tough to understand and I know that it is impossible to follow the action exactly because I am not giving you all the positions and the correct action. My biggets concern on this pot is the preflop play and that is the reason why I dont give you all the information postflop. Even though I am glad to take any comments.
