I played in the same table with you, I hope I wasn't the reason why you came there [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Anyway the way table was playing I think this is easy turn fold.

Even the flop three bet is doubtfull, I mean at least till I left(little after you came) there was only 1 player against who you would lead on that flop..

Heh, well I was new to the table, but yes I didn't like how I played this one at all, as lucky as I was...

edit: actually, you were at my OTHER table... this table was probably 5x as aggressive, but I still need to let it go by the turn

you have to dump this on the turn... and by the river I don't think you're beating much at all :-/

I actually like the way you played the flop. I think you can toss it to the turn check raise b/c you are likely drawing to 3 outs at best

Agreed. With aggressive players, the flop c/r means "I have a pair. Or a draw. Or nothing." The turn c/r sure looks scary though - at that point it's like he's saying "I spit on your top pair." Maybe I call down if I know this guy, but otherwise I probably drop it.

I dont know how prima plays, but Id have a hard time folding this on party. Maybe on the river when the 8c hits but def. not before then.

Yeah, of course I hate the river card, but at that point I have the "I'm getting 10:1 to showdown top pair" mentality...I don't know if I even looked at the river card [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
