[ QUOTE ]
I raised here because I thought I can win with this often enough that it was a value raise. Anybody think I should just complete here?[/quote

Bona ... you may infact have preflop value in raising but this value is offset by being OOP ... a good rule of thumb from Dave Fromm: play pots smaller OOP, and big when in position

[ QUOTE ]
Well we didn't hit the flop but only one OC and I expect fewer people would be playing J or T than they would an A or K if they are playing OC's...

[/ QUOTE ]

are you kidding ... the Jack is like the most playable card in a limpers profile

[ QUOTE ]
Anyway I raised preflop and am going to call if bet to so I lead. OK???

[/ QUOTE ]

don't ever think that you need to bet the flop after raising pre flop ... I doubt I would bet this flop (if I had the 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] i might change my mind) - and calling a raise is terrible IMO (why are you thinking of calling one)

Turn
Well didn't run into any static on the flop and the turn card hasn't weakened my hand much. I'll fire again. I'll likely fold to a raise now.


[/ QUOTE ]
nothing wrong here IMO

[ QUOTE ]
Well theriver isn't great and does complete some straight draws, also a lot of players like to save their big hands and raise the river. So I think I'll check and call one but not 2. OK or should I fire the third barrel? Or something else?


[/ QUOTE ]

well - now your here ... personally I have no idea - i hate donkeys at the river
I don't like the prospects of betting into two player after this hand.

i think taking a check and see line isn't bad:
calling if the retard on the end bets, and folding if the retard in the middle bets
but still not sure on that, so
