Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (5 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, Button folds, Hero calls.

I was hoping to CR this from a LP bet, but BB beats everyone to it. Should I have led this? I sure didn't feel good about a CR after everyone called and didn't want to tie people to the pot so I just called.

Turn: (4.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls.

I checked here with the same thought as the flop, but after everyone called again I kinda choked and just called. In retrospect I think leading the turn would have been better. The best way to protect my hand. Thoughts?


River: (8.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls, BB folds.

Easy river raise?

Final Pot: 11.50 BB

I've been playing mostly SnGs for the past two months and my ring game (even after reading SSH) feels really rusty.

Appreciate any and all comments.
