I have A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in the BB. A few limpers and I check. Two clubs on the flop, plus some miracle back-back-door wheel draw. I bet and get a few callers then a late-position raiser. I 3bet, everyone calls.
Turn is the 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Cool, I got there. As my chips hit the table I see that it's the 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] out, which means when I recheck my hole cards... yep, I have A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Everyone calls.
A fourth [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] hits the river, I bet and get called by the flop raiser who loses with the king-high flush.
I'm playing 15-30 at Hustler, which has a 2-chip / 3-chip structure that I'm not used to. I'm mesmerized by hot chick who is swiping player's cards. The dealer bounces something off my head to get my attention and I see that there has been an UTG limper, then everyone folded around to me with JTo on the button. I think about raising because UTG is playing somewhere around 90/2/.0001, but BB is a Gamble Gamble Armenian guy who will 3-bet just because, so I call...
Then the button calls. The button was kind of in no-man's-land between me and the guy to my left, but he has the button. To make matters worse, The Armenian guy isn't BB, he's SB. He posted with a bunch of $1 and $3 chips, which sure looked like enough for the BB (I'm used to a 1/3 structure). That means the guy I though was UTG is actually BB. So I just open-limped JTo in the CO. Fantastic.
Flop comes Jxx. passive BB who will never ever fold bets, and I raise. Armenian guy, who has been check-3betting bottom pair regularly folds. Queen hits turn and (Edit: BB) check-calls. K hits river and I check behind. MHIG
