BB is 23.81/ 9.52/ 3.29 in 63 hands.

Party Poker 5.00/10.00 Hold'em (5 handed) link

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
1 folds, Hero raises, 2 folds, BB calls.

Flop: (4.40 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.

Turn: (4.20 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB raises, Hero calls.

I see the 4 straight but I have sufficient outs versus most 2 pair combinations, so I call.

River: (8.20 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.

Here I decided a raise/fold line would be best.

Final Pot: 12.20 BB.

His line looks so much like a straight to me. He bet out flop with an eight possibly an eight+pair like 87, 89, straights the turn, CR's you..

I would just call the river...

I probably wuss out and fold the turn. You only have sufficient outs against two pair hands without a T, and you may very well be drawing dead.

The only 2 pair hand that gives me trouble is T9, I only have 3 Q outs. I have 6 outs vs T7 (3 Qs, 3 8s) and 8 or 9 outs vs all other 2 pairs. I'm not sure if this, plus some random semibluff raises override the possibility of drawing dead.

Why not check the turn through?

I don't want to give 2 hearts or a worse 1 pair/no pair hand a free card. I guess I don't feel my hand is weak enough, considering the opponent's range, to check behind.

I bet/fold the turn.

If he has the straight you're dead. If he has 2pair, theres a good chance he's sharing your ten.

You really dont have odds here.

Also thats a pretty iffy PFR from MP. Its not bad, but very very marginal.

I PFRed from the CO, it's 5 handed.
