Your turn action, given you checked, is fine (the smooth call-cap) but the first check doesn't make sense to me.

ugh.... just re-read the action. I'm fairly sure that the flop is wrong, I'm surprised we (yes, two of us checked it before I posted it, we suck) didn't catch it. Running off to a biz meeting, will post a correction later. Thats what happens when you post hands while at work [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Sometimes playing your hand in a straight forward manner is the most deceptive. By which I mean, you should put in a bet or a raise at every opportunity on the turn. I don't see any benefit to smooth calling the turn.

No, the flop is correct.

FWIW, I was involved in this hand and with a pot this size I would and did expect TT to play his hand straight. I think his turn play is less than ideal, but it did have the effect of making me misread his hand completely and led to my giving more action than I should have. I think this is more of a happy accident than anything else though, and I think he should have simply bet the turn.

I didn't mind the check so much since it seems you were relatively certain one of the remaning players would bet. I wouldn't want a bet and then a bunch of calls here, I'm looking to stick it to the remaining players.

You have to put at least one of them on a smaller [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] flush so check and then raise the living hell out of anyone who dares call.

To me, your mistake is smooth calling. Could have cost yourself an extra BB here by doing so.

By checking to that many players, you can get away with making it seem that the third [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] scared you and then can totally confuse them when you hammer back with a reraise.

I don't mind the EP turn check, I wasn't so hepped up on the smooth call. I think 3-bet it right there.

Just my $0.02 though.

Your line on the turn makes it a lot harder for worse flushes and other non flush hands to pay you off, as it's a line that scream of the nuts.
