Pre-flop:

jnr922 calls. one o clock folds. crna2b folds.
Movie House calls. StealthyNinja calls. NutzCracker
folds. rallbritain calls. Moneysnatcher calls.
rrjcalgary folds. ProMinx checks.

<font color="red"> I didn't really like calling here but I didn't think a raise would get me heads up or even 3 hand. any thoughts on that play? I did consider pushing, I would have probaly picked up a nice sized pot, looking back i think this would not have been a bad play. </font>


Flop (board: 9h Th Jc):

ProMinx checks. jnr922 bets 350. Movie House folds.
StealthyNinja calls. rallbritain folds.
Moneysnatcher folds. ProMinx folds.

<font color="red"> This flop and action was also a little tricky for me, I probaly had the right implied odds here to make the call if i truly had the 8 outs but it seems like the Qs would have me on a beaten straight alot of the time(plus i could already be drawing dead).

Any thoughts appreciated.
