Re: 15/30 hand (for Manicmailman and mike l)
 

That flop would make me wish I folded my 9s preflop rather than making a futile attempt to isolate.

RESULTS
 

I folded for the reasons outlined by mike l and GAMBLER (one of the few times GAMBLER and I seem to agree [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ). The biggest problem was that I wasn't closing the action. The guy behind me called 3 bets cold, which in this game means either a suited A or a pair. I would call if I knew for a fact that there would be no raise behind me, but a raise felt likely here.

Sure enough, the guy behind me raised, and the rest of the field just called. The turn was the 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Ouch.

It was checked to the raiser, he bet, and only the preflop limp-reraiser called. The river was the 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], making the board

The limp-reraiser now check-folded.
