Two pair staring a straight in the face
Given that calling a raise out of the BB with this hand was a total mistake, how should the rest of this hand be played? My intention was to fold to a raise on the turn, but there was no raise.....figured if anyone had the straight by the river, they would have had it on the turn already, so again, I would fold to a raise.
UTG+1 is very tight and passive, which makes the pre-flop call a disasterous idea. I would like to say I was drunk, but it was 10AM, and I only had lots of coffee in me. MP3 is VERY loose and aggressive. Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, Hero calls, UTG calls. Flop: (8.50 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP3 calls. Turn: (6.25 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP3 calls. River: (9.25 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP3 calls. Final Pot: 11.25 BB |

Re: Two pair staring a straight in the face
It looks fine except for the preflop call.
You have a clear value bet on the river. |

[/ QUOTE ] For what its worth, he called the raise pre-flop with T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] and flopped the straight. I guess he got as many bets out of me as possible..... |

Re: Two pair staring a straight in the face
He flopped a straight draw, not a straight. Looks good the way you played it though aside from the PF call. Be happy you didn't lose more money.
