a flop raise sounds alright. The river's tough with no read. I think I would call.

[bdk3clash]

I called. SB had J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], and MHIG.

I guess this one makes up for the other 7.5 times I'll call and lose.

I would have raised on the flop...River bet is tough with no read...if you can put him on a missed draw, bet (obviously). I think the raise on the flop would have given you at least a little more info as to what you should do on the flop.

I think your river call is good, before i even saw your results I was thinking to myself that sb was on a draw. I say that because if he had a queen, i mean a great queen(AQ, KQ)wouldnt he raise pre-flop? or even a mediocre Queen (QJ QT) wouldnt he go for a c/r? But then again everyone plays diffrent. Great call on your part.

I dunno about the river call. The only other draw on the flop is another [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] draw, which is less likely because I've got two [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]s. I guess this one is close, and although it worked out I'm not convinced it was right to call the river.

I woudlnt raise the flop, the pot is small enough where I think its more productive to let people stay in behind you. And you really arent protecting anything in your hand so whats the point?

I would call the river and expect to lose, but stranger things have happened.

I think you made the right decision here, I HATE making calls like this but they seem to come thru often enough.
