The open limper and the raiser were both complete clowns and the raiser only had 90 left at the start of the hand.

If you're going to bother at all, why not raise so that you get the big blind out of there, POSSIBLY make the open-limper fold, and get it heads up with "Clown" #2?

With that said, going with the action you have here, I can't see calling the two cold on the flop for your gut shot / overcard seeing as how there is a two-flush on the board so you might only have 3 clean outs.

If you had raised pre-flop and gotten rid of the open-limper, especially in hindsight with the button not liking this hand, you certainly would've won this pot vs. I'm guessing losing to the limper?

Or was this a SUPER-clown?

I didn't call 2 cold on the flop, I checkraised the button.

I don't understand the flop play at all.

Usually when i feel i'm not leading and don't have a ton of outs and don't have a chance at cleaning up any outs or any folding equity against the whole field, i call if the pot odds are nice enough, in this case yes.

Really really don't like the turn bet.

Usually when i have no folding equity and a small-medium chance to be ahead, i check.

The river i play the same and hope he open limped sutied crap or T9o.

My apologies, I did read that wrong, but I don't like the checkraise either. It's definitely better than calling the two cold, but I still don't like it as you only have the aforementioned 3 clean outs.

Did somehow this manager to come together to form a win? Being that this is Party, I guess it could, but at any live game this is HUGE -EV.
