30-60 hand

[andyfox]

I'm in the big blind with 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG limps. She's a terrible player. She plays about three times as many hands as anyone else in the game and will pay off like Richard Nixon trying to buy a Watergate burglar's silence.

Mid-position player raises. He fancies himself a good, solid player, but he's relatively weak-tight and enjoys a good laydown as much as a good lay down. There's a cold-caller behind him by a pretty tight player who uses the phrase Running Bad more than it appears in the famous song by that title. Small blind calls, as do I, and we see the flop 5 handed.

Flop is T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Small blind checks, I bet, UTG calls and pre-flop raiser raises. Pre-flop cold-caller and small blind fold. I call as does UTG.

Turn is 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. We check around.

River is 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], making board T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

I bet. UTG hesitates and calls. Pre-flop raiser shows his hand to his neighbors, shrugs disgustedly and folds.

My hand is good. Pre-flop raiser complains he folded a T because he thought I had a straight.

Thoughts?
