Really sorry, but cant get the converter to do the blinds and bet sizes, so figured it was beter to have all the info messy than miss stuff.

Anyways...

With most hands I can normally look back on them and figure out how I should have played, but this one I’m pretty stumped.

Pre-flop, I think the call is fine based on pots odds, the chance to eliminate a player and the chance that with one player all in, there’s a good chance we would be checking it down and I could see all 5 cards.

When he bets the flop, I’m pretty sure he must have a pretty good hand. I’d say his range here is AK, AA, or trips, so if I hit my straight I’m almost certainly going to win, but the 9 and the 10 aren’t outs.

Flop I’ve clearly more than the odds to at least call even if I just see the turn, since if I do hit, my hand will be disguised and against his range I should have no problem getting it all in on the turn or river.

The turn I’m not so sure, do the pot odds make it a clear call? Although I’ve got great odds, I don’t really want to risk elimination on a 4-1 long shot.
I actually timed out on the turn while I was trying to decide whether to call or not, and I still cant decide what would be right.

How’s my line, would you have played any streets differently? I normally like to play my draws aggressively, but I’m 100% sure I have no fold equity here.
