4-bet cap here.

2 loose limpers to me in cutoff w/ 9 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img]

I raise. SB folds. BB and limpers call.

4 [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] 9 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img]

Checked to me. I think this is as innocuous as it gets and decide to slowplay. I check.

7 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] (4 [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] 9 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img])

BB bets. Limper 1 folds. Limper 2 raises. Hmmmmm... I 3-bet. BB calls. L2 caps. Oops. I call. BB calls.

Phew. Checked to me. I bet. BB calls. L2 overcalls.

I probably would bet here as most people will continue with overcards.

I would have played the turn the same way, but probably not happy with the results of L2 capping.

I would most likely bet the river too, hoping that L2 has a busted straight.

I find it hard to believe that L2 would limp in with 58s, my guess would be he too had a set of 4's, 6's, 7's or a high pair in the hole. Either way, i think you played fine and you should be dragging that pot in. Results?

Not sure you noticed that the board paired on the river...

Why is that hard to believe?

58s is a plausible hand for a LL player. T8 is an even more plausible holding for MP and it's the nuts on the turn. That's my guess for Limper2.

I bet the flop here because I'd also bet the flop with almost any hand I raised preflop with.

BB had 58s. L2 had T8o. 58s and T8s are very common limping hands in LL. T8o is somewhat common as well.

Yeah, I probably bet in this situation 90+% of the time. Just mixing things up a little...
