The game is loose and very aggressive (I'm having fun not winning).
Purnell is bb with A5 hearts. UTG (Maniac) raises, Weak-tight folds, Fishie calls, Tough LAG calls, Tricky calls, 2 TAGs fold, I call. The pot is now 5 BB. Flop is 864 rainbow with a heart, giving me the bottom end of a gutshot, a backdoor nut flush draw, and a weak overcard. I check, Maniac bets, Fishie calls, Tough LAG calls, Tricky raises, I fold. (Pot is 7.5 BB minus the rake) Standard? |

Hey Purnell-
Wirh the maniac in back of you, who might reraise, I think the fold's pretty easy. Especially with the bottom end of the straight. I would probably be tempted to call if I had A7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]... I'm guessing the flush hit... -jeff |

Worse yet. Turn ace, river 5. Maniac wins the showdown with pocket sevens for the straight. I laughed so loud I think it put security on alert. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Hope you stayed at the table long enough to make it all back and then some.
Did maniac reraise the flop? Did the other players stay in for the turn? -jeff |

My memory is not too clear, but the pot was raised more than once on the later streets. I was definitely expecting him to 3 bet. The tension I felt as I watched what I thought might be the winning hand develop and then released when I saw the showdown is all I really remember. This hand would have cost me several bets if I had continued, but at the time I thought it might have been correct to do so.
