Yeah...so I\'m \"That Guy\"
Um...this is an embarassing 1st hand from a Party $10+1.
At first I like the flop bet. But, now that I think about it, I have a clear drawing hand and should not have been building the pot. I doubt my hand is best, but I have the open-ended straight (might be no good) and the backdoor flush draw, top pair with no kicker. I figured make a bet to establish I like my hand and keep these guys from dancing around the pot with minbets. When I'm reraised...I just sort of turn of my brain and call along. I'm guessing I have to fold to this reraise, assume a made straight or two pair? And then I should certainly fold to the push, because now it's very clear my hand is no good...right? (If this situation were different and I was getting good pot odds, could I call; i.e. should you go by profitable odds if losing ends your tournament?) So yeah, pretty sure calling the reraise and the all-in are no good. But how should I have played the flop?

I think you should check/fold the flop because you are out of position in a six-way unraised pot and your hand sucks.

Re: Yeah...so I\'m \"That Guy\"
yeah...figured as much...just wanted to make sure I shouldn't be playing straight draws given that this one sort of worked out (MP2 has A6 spades). If I were last to act and it was checked to me, what would i do?

Re: Yeah...so I\'m \"That Guy\"
Well, if it were me, I check behind and then fold to the turn bet. Others might disagree with that as too passive, but I just don't think you need a 90-chip pot so badly that you need to bet at it in a marginal situation. If it checked around again, I'd fold two pair on the river to any substantial bet with four to a straight out there in a six-way pot.
