How's my play? Could I have gotten more?

Personally I wasn't thrilled w/ the way I played this hand, but there were quite a few players at the table playing any 2 and calling down w/ mid pair.

What would you have done differently?

Augie this is the hand I was talking about.

I'm by far an expert but except for maybe pushing on the Turn, but hell, you don't want to scare him off the draw, you have a great, well-hidden hand here on a non-scary board for the most part.

What kinda range of hands would he call with pre-flop for T230?

If he's called with KJ, he's a donkey. If he called with QQ, you're going broke I think regardless. If he has 22, that's a loose call but same result as above.

I'm still learning, so I'm looking forward to hearing what others have to add [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I don't see how you could have gotten any more. This was a total dream for you. you had to idiots raising and reraising in the face of aggression.

Savor this one.

You're assuming he WON the hand.

You played the hand fine, btw.

Assuming you won...

The only way was to bet less than 500 on the turn ... and maybe get two callers... my guess is the sb had Q2 or T2 and made a boat 2's over with the turn.

Other than that assuming you won, you got all of the callers chips.
