Final Pot: 12.20 BB

I was clicking something and PS conveniently popped up on me and I raised.

Postflop comments? Read on flop bettor is he's a loose/action type, I thought check raising the field would be a good play. In retrospect I am having doubts about the check though. Even loose/action players will slow down with 4 wheel cards on the board. Betting and being raised (which is unlikely), flush draws, aces, and sets won't fold anyway. Weak deuces and fours wont induce much action on the river anyway. Bad idea?

Re: Oops
 

Unfortunate that UTG+2 didn't bet the turn, he could well have been on some misguided attempt to bluff at the pot on the flop - betting out on the flop probably would have been good anyway as the preflop raise means many people will not put you on a hand that has a 3 in it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Oops
 

I'm crazy enough that I would have probably continued the bluff and bet the flop, since I raised PF. Heck, you can consider it a value bet almost since you're getting 13-1 on your needed 11-1 shot for the straight. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

The way it played out, even though a C/R would be fun, I'd probably just bet the turn. Two possible flush draws now, and I'd hate seeing it get checked through.

Re: Oops
 

I'd bet the turn. No one's going to put you on holding a 3, given your PF raise, so they'll gladly pay you off. Plus, there are too many players on board for any of them to get aggressive ... they're afraid someone else will have the 3.
