Well, im leaving for vegas in about 5 hours, so no more cards for me except drunken rampages at the 4/8 tables after too many lines of ... uhm-- waiting in lines at the clubs. Yeah those lines. Hate those lines!
Anyways, i while waiting to get picked up to goto dinner (Mr DUI doesnt drive much anymore ), after losing $50 playing 2/4O8 raising every hand, i decided to mess around my old stomping grounds, the 10/20 sh tables. And since i am a +EV machine, i posted in the UTG+2 position... and picked up one of my usual monsters, namely .
And yes, i got pretty damn lucky in this hand. But the way i played this hand is basically standard for me- i was wondering how others would play this one.

So i lucksacked him, since he had best hand/best draw the whole way, and i managed not only to get there on him, but to get there in such a way so as to make him a hand good enough to cost him an extra bet.
LIke i said this is pretty much my standard, somewhat LAGgy play, which i have my reasons for - wondering how others would play it? Check/call, raise for the free card, or just muck outright, since the pot is small and there is a flush draw out there?
