Was called \"retarded\" for this hand - 5/10 6 Max
 

Six handed, and it is called around to the small blind, who folds. I raise with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]in the BB. UTG+1 folds everyone else calls. Three to the flop.

Flop is Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I bet, UTG calls, MP raises. I re-raise and UTG caps(?). MP calls, I call.

UTG has done nothing that makes any sense for the past hour, but has been killing the game with all types of hands. I would be much better off to his left. He is NOT good.

MP is your standard table coaching weak tight ass.

Turn comes 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], and I bet out. UTG raises, MP folds, and I call.

River 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I check call.

MP was the one who analyzed my IQ here....I assume for betting into the check-capper on the turn.

My thought was that if I bet out on the turn, I a) don't give any free cards to flush draws and b) am likely to get it heads up with the lunatic, which is what happened.

Good? Bad?

I play it the exact same way...im interested to see if its a mistake though, because I think, unless UTG is a real retard, you're behind him.

No reason to believe UTG has anything more than TP given your read. He could even have less.

Your play is fine.

Heh, can't let this comment go, as you've provided me with a chance to repeat one of my questions: if all 5 players are already in the hand, is there any hand a person shouldn't complete with from the sb?

In my opinion, any action that has this result is great with one pair in a big pot. I think you played it perfectly.

Donk betting into, i mean not giving free cards to maniacs and kicking others out of hand is +EV. Play was fine NH
