Default AKs on the button.

Same live $12-$24 game. Game is great, calling stations, steamers….god please let me get some hands.

My prayers are answered when I find A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on the button.

MP open raises….

(tricky and tilt prone, he plays somewhat aggressively but far too loose, he’s also stuck pretty good)

…LP calls, I 3-bet, BB (total calling station) does what he does best.

4 players (6BB)

Flop: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Checked around.

4 players (6BB)

Turn: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Checked to me, I bet, BB calls, MP raises, LP folds, I 3-bet, BB calls all-in, MP calls.

3 players (15BB)

River: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Checked around.

Comments on all streets appreciated

Results to follow.

“Ugly” as in horribly misplayed, or “ugly” as in you got rivered?

I had a tight image, and I wanted some action on what seemed to be a fairly safe board for my flopped nuts.

My other thought was that nobody would really stick around for a heart draw since I held all of the high hearts.

If you have a calling station and a guy already on tilt (or presumable), I bet this flop fully expecting a call from both at the very least, and quite possibly a raise from MP, where u can smooth call trapping in the CS.
I also bet the turn - my only fear is Ladies from the MP player, but you don't know enough on that yet since the flop was checked.
River, can't do anything other than check.

I'd have played it the same way, and for the same reasons. Where were you playing just out of interest?

In a game of steamers and calling stations, I bet that flop every day and twice on Sunday. They wanna be calling stations? Give them somethiong to call. Nice river check.
