Did I play this okay? 15/30
This could be results oriented but I am really paranoid in this game because I feel like I should be winning but I don't know if I suck or just run bad every time I play this game or what. It seems like I keep putting my money in super good then something absurd like this happens where I feel like I should get 3/4 so often yet I always walk away with 0-1 quarter.

Looks fine to me, on all streets. That's a very good hand to go to war with on the flop and beyond. Everyone gets 3/4'd and worse with the nuts one way occasionally - it can't be avoided.

I don`t like the river bet.

I would have reraised preflop, and maybe not have bet the river.
You shouldn't blame yourself for getting sixthed here though, that just happens sometimes. If MP2 is going to play trash like that for a raise, you want to try to get into as many games with him as possible. |

Re: Did I play this okay? 15/30
That is a pretty starting hand, but the turn and river bets are not wise, IMO. You only have a one-way hand, and one that is very prone to getting quartered. And by the time the river is there and there are three other players in the pot, you had to know that several (if not all) were playing a low hand given that board. Not sure if you were betting because you also had a gut-shot straight draw, but if the 5 gets there, your ass end of the straight will not usually win the high.
My O/8 rule of thumb: A one-way nut low hand is a calling hand. Only in certain circumstances is betting/raising +EV. It is almost NEVER +EV when A-2 is the nut low and you have 3 or more people in the pot. |

[/ QUOTE ] Hero has picked up the 2nd nut flush draw on the turn. You don't think the turn bet is wise? I think he's got a lot of equity here. |

Missed the flush draw. In that case, I can't criticize a bet there, although I think a check w/ the second nut flush draw is a legitimate play as well. A good situation where you can mix it up and vary your play.

[/ QUOTE ] Thanks for providing the worst advice I have ever read on this board. You should bet the turn every time, if you had just said river it would be different. As others have pointed out, your logic is flawed, look more carefully at hero's hand b4 providing advice. |

Re: Did I play this okay? 15/30
Yeah I agree with what TxRedMan said. With the action on the flop it seems likely your not the only one drawing at the nut low. I think checking and calling the river is the most valuable play for all reasons already stated. Seems if you want to win your money back you should just play a lot more shorthanded with MP2. Do people really chase that much in that game with next to nothing?

Re: Did I play this okay? 15/30
I 3-bang this all day long preflop and build a big pot. I don't like the flop 3-bet and would have called down after the flop raise unless I hit my flush in which case I would lead out again. The bad beat side of things is just standard.
