Default Re: $10/20 L08, how\'d I do?

Hi WMB - Hero's hand should look to Button a lot like the nut low after the pre-flop raise, the flop bet, and the turn bet.

Thus when Button raises on the turn, since Button should already know that Hero probably has the nut low, Button's raise doesn't look like another nut low. Instead Button's raise, at least at first glance, looks like a nine-high straight.

But what are CO and BB doing? I don't know - lots of possibilities, including another nut low or two. Since the lots of possibilities also include playing a second nut low, and/or playing a non-nut flush draw, and/or playing some combination of a non-nut straight, set or two pairs, Hero's re-raise initially seems fine. Then when Button backs off and doesn't cap, you have to wonder if Button has the straight after all, and if not, there's the ugly possibility of another nut low, or perhaps more than one more nut low - oops - but by then it's too late.
