Flop: (20.50 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> BB checks, MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, Hero calls, Button calls, BB calls, MP1 calls. Turn: (12.75 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> BB checks, MP1 checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, MP2 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, Button calls, MP1 calls.

Final Pot: 23.75 BB The key was calling 2 bets back to me preflop. I was getting over 6:1 on the call, and 64s is 3.7:1 to flop a 2 pair or better made hand + at least an 8 out draw. On the flop, I figured I had 5-6 outs with the gutshot and backdoor flush draw. Thankfully, the guy who flopped a set merely check-called the flop so I got to see the turn getting 20:1 odds. Gotta love 2-4 players. The rest is history - I get called a "moron" for playing "trash", etc. |
