<font color="blue">Part 1:
OK, I'm interested in hearing different ways in which to play this hand. Limp? Raise (how much)? If you're raised, what's your line? Whichever direction you take, talk about your subsequent strategy on the flop. (For this section, ignore the flop below.)

Also, if you intend to talk about more than one strategy, open up a new post. </font>


Flop: (XXXXXXX) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]


<font color="blue">Part 2:
Ok, let's assume this is the flop.
Assumptions:
If you limped, there is 4 people in the pot with you.

If you raised, assume there is 3 people in the pot with you.

Depending on how your line went above, continue to follow that line, and discuss how your strategy is unfolding, or how it's changing.
