Hand to Talk About

[Mason Malmuth]

Hi Everyone:

Here's a hand I played earlier this evening in a very loose $30-$60 game.

Five people limped in and I called (for one $10 chip) out of the small blind with Q[img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img].

So six of us, including the big blind took the flop which was A[img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img]T[img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img]. Everyone checked.

The turn was the K[img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img]. Everyone checked.

The river was the 8[img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img]. I bet, and one player who held the 9[img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img]7[img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] (for a smaller straight) called.

All comments welcome.

Best wishes,
Mason
