Default Re: Stars $215 NL Hand. 98 suited: Choose your own adventure

Blech. I tend to hemorrhage chips when I flop top pair and a straight draw on flops like these.

My most recent experience, if I may hijack my own response for a moment:

K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in an unraised BB with 5 limpers. Flop comes 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. The smart move would have been to check and watch the action, but I felt some sort of suicidal need to bet into the field. Disaster ensued.

I see you also have 5 limpers. You also have a 2 tone flop. You also probably met with disaster. It can't be too far wrong to check/fold to any significant action here.
