I ended up getting paid nicely, but more due to the donkishness of the other players.

Please help on all streets. Is the river a raise for me?

That's what I was afraid of. I'm a NL player so I still play scared to river raises.

Does the payoff here of weaker hands outweigh the possibility of a full house here?

I guess the only real boat possibilities here would be 68, 66, possibly 88, but they should have reraised pre.

I may need to depo on Full Tilt.........Is 3//6 normally this fishy?

I can't kill ya for just calling the river raise. I agree with others raise is better, but I can understand the call.

I would have raised the flop 1st time around.

If everyone calls..great! We make money with every bet that goes in.

If everyone folds except that flop better, than that is fine too. We can choose to semi-bluff the turn (most likely) or take a free card. (hey, we might even have the best hand).

Of course reads can sway this, but in general, I would just go ahead and raise the flop first time around.
