I'm not sure I understand what part of this you don't do often.

Limp with a low pocket pair UTG? That's a perfectly acceptable strategy (though mixing it up with the occasional raise works well, too, depending on the table).

Pot the flop with bottom set on a monochrome board? You're charging draws and you've got lots of redraw outs against flushes. That's a standard play for me.

Bet/three-bet/call a push on the turn with a full house? You can't escape this hand -- that flush on the board makes your hand very stealthy, and means that you're up against weaker hands VERY often here.

Min-reraise the turn? OK, that's an odd one, I'll admit. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Still, you're building a pot for a river push, and anything that makes that easier is a good choice. I'd have probably gone to $15 or $20 in order to make that river push easier, but if you had some read that villain would keep firing, it doesn't really matter. Besides, it seems pretty clear that villain likes his hand, and that you're both going to get all-in by the river. Exactly how that happens is kinda moot. The only mistake you could make in this hand is NOT getting all-in before the showdown.

AJ, I'm alerting the moderators to your abuse of the Happy thread. Make all necessary preparations; I assume you will be getting a three-day suspension for your actions.

Oops. Enamored with my slowplay and stackage, I failed to note that this does not qualify. Do as I say, not as I do. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
