The only pertinant information I can give here is that the game seemed pretty tight and sorta passive after the flop. I had been playing in a tournament also, and was more focused on watching that table then this one.

PokerStars Pot-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool (http://poker-tools.flopturnriver.com/Hand-Converter.php) from FlopTurnRiver.com (http://www.flopturnriver.com) (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button ($22.15)
SB ($16.85)
BB ($2.30)
UTG ($13.20)
Hero ($55.05)
MP1 ($25.50)
MP2 ($11.60)
MP3 ($70.80)
CO ($32.30)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG calls $0.25, Hero calls $0.25, MP1 calls $0.25, MP2 calls $0.25, MP3 calls $0.25, CO calls $0.25, Button calls $0.25, SB completes, BB raises to $2.3, UTG calls $2.05, Hero calls $2.05, MP1 calls $2.05, MP2 calls $2.05, MP3 calls $2.05, CO calls $2.05, Button folds, SB calls $2.05.

Flop: ($18.65) 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif, 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif (8 players)
SB bets $6, UTG folds, Hero calls $6, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 raises to $15, CO folds, SB calls $8.55 (All-In), Hero calls $9.

Turn: ($63.20) 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif (4 players, 1 all-in)
Hero checks, MP3 bets $22.25, Hero folds.

Am I commited here?

Thanks,

oh god, the PF is unusual but with the amount of limping not neccesarily a bad idea, calling $6 with 3 behind you to act and jack [censored] is horrible, calling the next 9 hurts, not folding on the turn is insanity!

Am I missing something here?
is it for play money!?

As Isaw2 says pf is weird but whatever. As for the flop and turn you probably have 4 outs (5's). This means that you are getting 4/46 or 1/11.5 odds of making your hand, clearly the pot is not offering anything like this so it is an easy fold.

My post flop play is quite bad and loose, I know this about myself.

I don't mind the constructive critisism. My thoughts were that I should have raised somewhere post flop for the gutshot semi from early position and commit myself completely.

Does implied odds factor here? If I hit I will get paid a boatload. Or is that just plain gambling?

/sigh (everyone wants to play with me now)

No, there was no place to raise this that was going to do you any good and you don't want to get committed with just a gut shot. I don't play this from anywhere but late position. As played, you whiffed so fold to the flop bet. Raising is spewing chips. Its a bluff into more than two people, not like to get everyone to fold.
