Right Color, Wrong Suit

I would folded preflop. Given that you raised preflop, I would have bet/called the flop if it got headsup, and bet the turn of course. But since you had two cold callers on the flop raise, I would have bet/folded the flop. You're behind most of the time and can still lose if you're not, with all the draws out there. Whomever has a ten will never let go and you're now playing catch up out of position. This is why I wouldn't have raised preflop.

In all seriousness, this hand isn't like you.

I don't think it's a fold preflop, I think it's a limp. It's a relatively loose game...with A9s I'd be raising for sure, I'd probably fold A7s.

As for on the flop, I figured I was behind after being raised...I gave a thought to folding, but when it came around to me I was getting 18-1 closing the action, and I have a hard time folding in a spot like that.

And as for this hand not being like me...you may be right. It came at the tail end of an 8-hour session, by which point I had been awake for 26 hours straight, and that's not a recipe for solid play. But hey, at least I played the turn right (I think).

By the way, were the dance lessons worth it?
