The correct play is clearly to turn the 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Table is full of loose players - somewhere in the middle of passive and aggressive. There has been some macho-man head to head stuff going on between some of these guys as a couple of them seem to know each other.

Hero has 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in BB

Pre-flop:

3 folds, MP calls, CO calls, SB completes, Hero checks


Flop:

K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

If we're calling here, what's our plan for the turn? The same?

Yes, call here. Getting almost 5-1 it is nearly impossible to laydown your nut draw. Open fold any board pairing card. And go nots if your draw hits.

Call 3 bets into a 15 bet pot with no more raises possible--this is a MUST CALL. No soul searching needed here. If you lose it will be more than you would like with a draw but if you win it will be correspondingly enormous to what would be usual.

That's why the 2+2 authors tell you these games can be extremely profitable but with huge swings in the process. Some players are not comfortable with this. If so, get out of this game. If you can't play correctly you will definitely lose.

Is the OP serious? You have a nut str8 draw on a rainbow board.
