Preflop:
Call seems obvious with this much in the pot.


[/ QUOTE ]
And you have a hand that plays well in a multi-way pot, so giddyup.

Flop:
Not really very strong, but I still might have the best hand at this point. I 3-bet to try and isolate SB and wasn't terribly thrilled to see MP1 call. SB caps, eh, call.

[/ QUOTE ]
I don't think you should 3-bet to isolate someone if you don't think your hand is strong, unless you know that someone is a maniac. Here you had just sat down, so this play is pretty questionable.

Turn:
SB could be checkraising here and I would like to see a showdown so I just check(in retrospect this is probably really weak). MP1's bet suprised me a bit but when SB just calls I I'm getting such good pot odds I call.

[/ QUOTE ]
Well this is consistent with your thought process, but I think you'd have been better off calling on the flop, then betting the turn if he checked to you.

Results ...

In retrospect, SB's play to build the pot with his open ended straight draw (high equity) was pretty nifty. But he had know way of knowing it would work like it did. He should have just led out. And his preflop call was crap.

The reason I posted this hand is because I thought I played it poorly

That's probably the reason for about 90% of the hands posted here. And we all just keep learning...
