$109 - AQo in the SB with bunch of limpers. Flop the nuts. Blah.

[octaveshift]

This is the third hand, so no read on any of the players yet. I don't like AQo out of position in a field this big, which is why I just called. (If I raise, and get called or reraised, I am in a bad spot, I think.) A leak?

ANYWAY

Dream flop, but what do I do now? Lead out, or let one of the limpers do the betting for me?

Wow. Same tourney. I just picked up QTo in the BB. Flop was AKJ rainbow. I'll wait until some feedback on the hand above before I post results for each.

Bet!

Edit: alright, I'll make a real post. You have soooooo many opponents. Somebody has a piece. You don't want 2 pair to get tricky and check also and fill up for free, especially when you can get it allin against 2 pair a lot of the time on this flop, or sometimes Q9 will be out too. Also usually a King that limps here will at least call your flop bet if not raise. If you get multiple callers a turn check almost always induces a bluff which at that point will be for a lot of chips because of the pot size.

I would probably lead out for about half the pot

[octaveshift]

What do you guys think of the PF check?

[octaveshift]

Well, since the board is kinda dead, I'll post the results.

I checked, thinking someone behind me HAD to have a piece, and of course, it gets checked around. Wooops.

Turn is an Ace. Wooops.

2 all ins(!?) and I call, splitting the pot 3 ways with Q4 and Q9. Of course! This is why you bet the flop!

SECOND HAND...

I end up splitting the pot with a villain who also has QT. Sweet. I love it.

Overall - definitely one of the strangest games I ever played in. Ended up 5 handed with these stacks:

Seat 1: Exec3 ( $445 )
Seat 2: jgotti ( $610 )
Seat 4: kevinpurcell ( $730 )
Seat 6: AKpowhound ( $7370 )
Seat 9: xyrophobic ( $845 )

Not really a fun spot to find yourself. Biggie raised every hand, so it was fun to watch people panic and call with junk, praying they'd catch.
