Nanos LO8, I think I'm figuring this out.

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
Hero calls, 2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, 1 fold, CO calls, Button calls, SB raises, BB calls, Hero calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls.

I bet instead of raising because I am in early position and don't want to discourage callers. I thought about re-raising when it got back to me but decided SB most likely has A2 and I didn't have counterfeit protection for low.

Flop: (14 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (7 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB raises, BB folds, Hero calls, MP1 3-bets, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, Hero calls.

I have nut low but figure SB for A2 as well, there are so many players in the pot I lead out figuring it is +EV, SB raises and I don't want to make it 2 bets to go so I just check. MP1s 3 bet makes me think he has A2 or 67.

Turn: (16 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB raises, Hero 3-bets, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB caps, Hero calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls.

This card gives me an uncounterfeitable low and a draw to the 2nd nut flush. I think more than likely the high and low are being split between three of us and the other players are drawing to higher straights. This and the flush draw makes it a clear jam.

River: (40 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls.

Final Pot: 48 BB

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, Hero calls, 2 folds, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (7 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (7 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, Hero checks, Button checks.

I have top pair with several overs but think this is a dangerous hand. There is a flush draw, a low draw and a straight draw. I plan on check/folding.

Turn: (3.50 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (7 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 bets, MP1 folds, Hero folds, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

This gives me a gut shot with 2 clean outs easy fold.

River: (6.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks.

Final Pot: 6.50 BB

I would probably reraise this preflop assuming I felt most players at the table would call 2 more once they'd already called 1. You have a very strong two way hand and you're getting way more than your fair share against 6 other players. Even better is once you make the pot gigantic, it's just plain funny to see the crap people will call down with. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
