Joe,

Were we ever in that 15/30 game together?

I'm not sure if we even met. I met a blitz of 2+2ers on Thursday and Saturday and wasn't sure who was who. I'm the zombie at the poker table to the point that if others are talking to me, I completely ignore them.

1. I'm a little uncomfortable with this turn raise. You probably have 6-7ish outs here, and so volunatarily upping the price on that draw is not that appealing to me. A weak-tighty check-raising this flop seems to scream a Q to me, and possibly now two pair, as QT and KQ seems to be quite likely. I doubt the nit is folding Q9, AQ, or QJ, because of the draw possibilities; he also may have emotional problems with giving up a hand to the out-of-towner hot-shot type. I also think you're pretty rarely ahead. So I'm not a huge fan of the turn raise.

Now that I rethink this hand after my nap (flew the red-eye), I fcked up the action. I knew 3 of us took the flop but it was an open limp to my right that I was trying to isolate. Then the SB check-raised that player out.

Change things now?
