The 5th street raise may have irritated you but was a correct move.

[/ QUOTE ]No, I don't think so. Raising with that board when you are at most, one pip ahead of your closest competition, is not "correct."

5th Street - (2.55 BB)

Seat 5 has a four-card 9, at best. Seat 3 is also representing a four-card 9. Seat 5 raises to get the four-card ten to fold. But all he did was make sure I called because, well, as much as I hate pots odds, I know Seat 3 is going to call, so that money is already in there, and I'm invested enough, and have good enough cards, that I am not leaving without seeing one more street.

I know you were playing for fun in this hand, but if not it wasn't a call.

With your call seat 3 should raise and seat 5 re-raise to force you out. They should keep jamming and you are not getting the odds to call here.
