Default Hmm. here\'s a nicely messed up hand at $100nl 6max..

$100NL 6 max. I would like comments on this hand. I wasn't sure how to play that flop. I figured I'd get a little money in with a little min raise. didn't really expect the action that followed.

Once I get to the turn, should I push with some FE? Or should I have checked, hoping for a check beind? And I guess I should've folded the turn because I was only getting 3-1..

No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players

Stack sizes:

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

your flop action is ...hmm, sub-optimal. Either raise the first time around (and make a decent raise, not a min raise) or call both times when you're getting nice odds in a multiway pot.
There's no reason to be reopening the betting because you risk getting all this action behind you. Even if they didn't reraise you what will you do on the turn oop after taking the lead?

Yeah, that's a really good point... by the way these guys were playing their hands, I'm 100% sure they wouldn't have let them go even if another heart hit. So ensuring I get there cheap would obviously been the best way of doing things.

Flop is ick. Flat call the $10 IMO and hope for a flush in a multiway turn. Raising the first time isn't bad either.

I wonder if you are thinking your overs are good here? The only reason to even flat call the $10 in the first place is because it's multiway. Pumping the pot is no good here, and it certainly doesn't work as a semi-bluff vs 4 players, and not even vs 2 players with that raise size.
