good 5-10 game on paradise. a few ok players, a few horrids, one I respect.
UTG limps. not a very good player.
there has not been a lot of raising PF so I take a shot with 55 in UTG+1 and limp. I've been trying to not play these small pairs up front so much, but I felt this was a good spot, and plenty of people to pay me off.
2 more limp after me, BB checks.
Flop is Kh 2c 5c
Nice I hit.
So I bet out, next player (MP) raises, LP calls 2, button folds, now UTG reraises! Easy cap here with whats got to be the best hand. Everyone calls, 4 to see the turn.
Turn is Qh
UTG bets in to me, I raise. MP calls 2 cold, Button calls, UTG calls.
River is Kc giving me a full house and putting the flush out there. I'm a bit concerned because I'm putting UTG on KQ since he bet in to me on the turn when the queen showed up.
UTG checks, I bet, MP raises, Button folds, now UTG fold!
Here's my weak play. I just call.
My hand is good and I rake a very nice pot. MP had the nut flush.
Given all the action I got on this hand, was my calling the raise on the river correct, or is this a GOTTA 3-bet situation? I think I just played too quickly in calling on the river, because I really put MP on the flush draw. I should have believed myself.
