A multiway drawing hand
 

Opponents are kind of passive, I don't know much else about them. I feel like a blind guy in an orgy in these hands. I was hoping for a river overcall but I dunno if raising is better. How did I play all streets?

Overall fine, but I think that not raising the river is criminal.

Re: A multiway drawing hand
 

Raise to $12. You don't know if CO is interested in his hand at this particular time, but you know that UTG is. Don't hope for the overcall, because that just adds $3 more into the pot-- you could accomplish the same thing by a minimum raise (don't do this).

Re: A multiway drawing hand
 

You didn't cover. Implied odds call on the flop and you didn't end up making enough on the hand to justify that call. So I would say, not a goot hand for Hero.

That river is incredibly easy to play.

Raise for value and fold to a 3 bet.

Re: A multiway drawing hand
 

If you don't want to raise when you make the flush that you were chasing then don't call the flop.
By the way, how big implied odds do you look for before calling LP raises out of BB with suited connectors and not much of a read?

i think he does get the implied odds back. the turn was checked through, which means that his call on the flop was basically break-even with the 2nd caller(assuming that he wasn't up against another flush draw). should definitely raise river though. i would say $10 is good.
