You took your shot on the flop and it didn't work. Why would you put any more money in?

pinneapple, I know you know you were the one in this hand, but I think the only real question is the river call, not the rest of the play.

Ahhh, that explains it. I was trying to figure out what I could have to flat-call the flop. Sorry about that. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Ummm... it was everyone else posting who questioned your other plays.

FWIW, I agree with Lacky and others that if you are going to stay in the hand at all, you have to bet the turn. I just see no reason to stay in, esp. if it was against me [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

i could go either way on completing pre-flop vs raising, but i agree the flop and turn are the best way to play. river is tough, but i call vs 2+2 and curse if he has a 6. i play the whole thing the same.

I hate everything about this hand. The only thing you beat is complete air or a 3? How does completing because it only costs 15t and pouring 375t in with 2PBK make sense in a 800 chip SNG?
