I'd be folding that preflop, but ok since we have called, I'd probably raise the flop to get a free turn (for when the diamond doesn't come) and to get all in more easily (when it does).

Well, just talking about the river.

You might not win, but I think it would be a little nutty to leave yourself with 500, abandoning 1100 in the pot when you have the 2nd best possible flush.

Everyone's been saying that you need to play the early game well to make money at the $215s, so i assume that means playing good drawing hands in LP. So i don't mind the call preflop.

UTG's cold call on the turn scares me. It looks like he could have missed a limp reraise PF with AA and filled up on the turn. 88 is another possibility. If hes a good player, i can't see him limping UTG with any flushes.

Anyway, I think you're supposed to fold this (tho i wouldnt at the $33s) Would you have bet if he checked the river to you? How would you react to a checkraise?

I think that's a bit overrated to be honest, and a bit loose to be calling QJs one off the button to only two limpers. I dunno but it seems like you'll be gambling too often on the flop when you do "hit", like this one.

Yeah I was kind of wondering about this. I mean the whole concept of suited connectors is to see a cheap, multi-way flop right? And these are nice high SCs at that. So when would you ever play QJs if not in this spot (or pushbot land obviously). Is fold the general consensus here?

With one more limper, or from the button.

I suppose there are some villians for whom 88 and maybe 22 are the only possible hands here, but you have to know a lot more than they are just $215ers to know that.

Yea, why am i assuming that $215ers can't be donks? So add a few random hands into the mix, and i think you can call. But it still looks like a boat / quads.

thinking about folding this river is worthy of being slapped around.
