I was told I played it really well 1/2 commerce 4 handed
      #11047296 - 07/03/07 10:46 PM

I had been playing for an hour or so 3 handed with this awful guy and then a guy that sounded like he might not be retarded (I was wrong) when a few other people wandered in and out. In this case the extra player is Hung La who I have never played with but he came over from some mixed game that broke and he had the look on his face of someone who has been curbstomped by thousands of bad beats so I was giving him credit for probably being good.

So fish folds, villain raises button, other guy folds, I call in bb with T7

Flop: Q78
I check/call

Turn:5
I c/r with the plan of checking the river if he calls, probably folding. He apparently doesn't like my plan at all and 3bets, I call.

River: T
What now?

Thoughts on flop/turn play and turn plan too.

Agree with this but I hate the turn checkraise. So you picked up some outs big whoopee.

Why did you check-raise the turn?

I never want to have another winning session so I play every single hand the exact opposite of how it should be played.

I can't imagine not checkraising the turn. What exactly are you afraid of?

the hand was a lot tougher and more interesting when you described it to me as the board being: Q87-9-T

"I can't imagine not checkraising the turn. What exactly are you afraid of?"

the tough player correctly 3 betting after recognizing it as a pair that picked up more outs since that's what every kid under 30 does on the turn when that happens.
