Double gut-buster spewage OOP?

[Peoples Elbow]

What's wrong with me?

I think I donked this one up pretty good - can you tell me how you would have played it? Let's assume you call the PFR - although I know not all of you would.

My thoughts on the flop - I think I should have RR'd to about the pot, but was stuck between the two players and made a terribly weak call. However, when he checked the turn behind me, I figured he had a weak king, was bluffing, or might think I was slow playing a set. Stupid thinking?

Sidenote: I've been trying to really get tricky and play a little bit crazy lately, putting lots of pressure on my opponents. It's actually been working quite well at the 50NL tables, but I hated how I played this hand.

This is FPS, stop bluffing so hard. And BTW, a 15 dollar bet here does the same or better than 23, and also saves 8 dollars when you're called.

That's helpful.

OP, if I were to play this hand, I would raise it PF. As played, I would probably lead out on the flop. I hate playing passive call-down on drawing hands like these. As played, fold to villain's flop raise.

Its not even soooooooooooooted. Fold PF.

As played, I'll raise the flop to try to knock MP out and get to showdown cheaply. You dont get anywhere by callin the initial flop bet. Raise it. Fold to MP's raise.
