[SlackerMcFly]

What would induce you to play this hand further or would you consider calling the PF raise to begin with?

fold pf
if you limp in fold to raise
as played I would bet half the pot on the flop or push if I was hammered

[SumZero]

You are probably a 45/55 dog against pf raiser. Even if he has KK you win 1/3 of the time. I'd consider re-raising all-in on this flop b/c of the dead money. Of course I definitely wouldn't have called the pf raise and I very likely wouldn't have open-limped either.

[SlackerMcFly]

Folding PF is the default play here to be sure. Just frisky and not hammered (yet).

So.... Here we go with some of the rest of the story:

what are you up to? Do you drink a bunch of beer and play the 11s? I'm lost. Anyway, below you post the rest of the flop donkfest and I'd call because I've yet to hit a royale with cheese and that would be cool.

Yes. And I'm lost as well.

Cha and YellowJacket are on to something here... My original question was "What would induce you to continue in the hand?"

The fact that you have a royal flush draw and two cards to come.

Damn, I can't believe I had to read this far before I found something reasonable.

Anyhow, given the way you played this hand (meaning I cede preflop), by calling preflop, you pretty much "got what you were asking for."
