Total pot: (28.10 BB)

You can slow down on 5th and 6th. Your hand is no longer that good and you are not winning without a showdown.

[Andy B]

Third and fourth are good. I think you have more than enough equity to bet fifth street. I'd slow down on sixth. Obviously, you're not winning on the river, and you're not bluffing out twelve people. Bummer.

[xxeximusxx]

I think everything is good except 6th, which is a call.

I hate when stuff like this happens, i usually just stare at the screen for 10 seconds before i fold, lol.

Standard.

On Fourth you are in excellent position to check-raise on the end and get many more bets in the pot. Your exact hand argues strongly for this, because you don't have a made anything yet, but you have excellent equity against both high and low hands. You want as much money in the pot as possible on Fourth, and you are not trying to knock anybody out, which is good, because nobody will fold.

Sixth is not a raise. You have no showdown hand.

The rest is just what happens when poker hates you.
