Default loose game. same as JJ. but now a little different :-)

i have QsJs in the bb.

THE ENTIRE TABLE LIMPS...and i've been on a nice little rush (not the reason for this but...) i raise. i had "chaching" signs going off on my head and i didn't think a l-r-r was likely since i hadn't seen one the entire time and i have only raise quality hands given the game.

everybody calls. 10 of us for 20 sbs.

flop is gold. JcTs4s. i check. 3 people check 1 bets 3 calls i raise 1 call, 2 folds and all the rest call. 16bbs (32sbs)

turn is 5s. i check. 2 more check. 1 bet 2 calls i raise 2 fold 3 calls. 4 people left for 24bbs.

river is Ac. i bet 3 call.

comments? go for a triple [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ? what about the other two? and the flop? and preflop for that matter?

I loved the preflop raise...hell i liked how you played that hand on flop and the turn...just bet the river. Most of the people would be afraid (in passive game) to bet that river but will call the bet just for the size of that pot...

that exact thought is what lead me to (unfortunately) give up my hope for the triple and just bet.

I liked the preflop raise, but since you raised preflop from the BB I would have led out on the flop. A check here always looks a bit strange, but then with 26 people in the pot, the normal gets skewed a bit. Liked the turn and river.

I like the preflop raise. Very witty. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I love that flop.

I would be so scared of missing bets on the flop by checking, that I would just go ahead and bet it on the flop, and try to get reraises in.

I would be so scared of missing bets on the turn that I would just bet it out....

I would be so angry if it got checked around on the turn.

I want to hear what others have to think, but the reason why I believe the turn should be bet is because there are so many players in the hand, that they may tighten up and decide not to bet since "the flush may be out."

If it's online, I might give it a shot. I'm assuming this was b&m though, which makes it a bad idea. Well played.

I think you played this hand very poorly. I would've just called on the flop to set the bear trap. Then on the turn, BLAMO, go off in their face and win a nice pot.

I think I like the check raise on both the flop and turn. You aren't going to knock alot of people out but every bit helps when you have top pair J. That being said, I myself might have pussed out and led the turn fearing what I would have done to myself if it was checked around.

Oh, and nice job building the pot preflop. Isn't it kinda surprising how infrequently these chances come up?
