*** TURN *** (3BB)
PAYMEDAMONEY - Checks (There's my straight. I figured that if I bet here I scare them off. Too obvious and I want to keep them both around.)

GOTGME - Bets $2
PAYMEDAMONEY - Calls $2 (Is calling instead of check-raising here a mistake? I wanted to keep the 3rd player in, but as you can see he folded anyway.)

I'm not in the habit of calling gutshots without odds. I just had a feeling about the players involved here. The player that folded I had played over 300 hands against and he had been tight, but very aggressive. I thought he would stick around, but I was wrong. I actually feel bad for the guy as he seems like a solid player, but PT says I have beaten him 21 out of 28 pots that we've been in together and I've taken more money from him than any other player. Anyway, should I have check-raised the turn or am I just beating myself up in hind-sight?
Hand #2: I actually really like the way I played this one.

And even though I posted this hand in the Bad Beats section I gotta put it here too. I'm sending this guy an X-Mas card because I credit hiim with breaking my losing streak.
[9s] in CO.
One limp ahead of me, I limp, button limps, SB raises, BB folds, but everyone else calls.
4.5 BB in pot
Flop: [Kh][4s]
Raiser bets, I raise, he re-raises and I once again ask the Gods why they chose to let me flop top pair when he so obviously has Aces. I have to call this down because the pot is getting so big.
7.5 BB in pot
Turn:
He bets and I call.
9.5 BB in pot.
River:
He bets, I call. OK show me your Aces.
11 BB after the rake slide over to me as he shows................... [3h].
Yup he raised a 5 way pot pre-flop with that.Statistics: Posted by MTPaid — Thu Nov 03, 2005 1:06 am
