Sexy check raise.

I sit down at the Wynn 15 game after abandoning the Mirage 20. I go on a little tear and am up a rack in 30 minutes when this hand comes along.

I have A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in MP2.
Two limpers, I raise, 3 cold calls behind me (now tell me why I would want to sit at a [censored] Mirage 20 game?).

Checked to me, I bet, player on my immediate left raises. Two cold callers. I call planning to see what the turn card is an play accordingly.

I check to the raisor, he bets, the two in the middle only call. I get a super sexy in on the entire field. Two call my CR including the player to my immediate left.

Worst card in the deck. I check, player to my left bets, other player folds and I throw in 6 chips I'll never see again.

Player flips QQ.

I lost this hand but was all warm and tingly inside from that sexy on the turn for full value!

It's sad that this is about as exciting as limit gets.

You two really should find something in your lives to keep you a little more entertained than being [censored] in an online forum.

By the by, I play both NL and limit, enjoy them both and tire of people who really think it's worth the brain power to debate which one is "better".

What makes this check raise sexy? Aside from the commentary telling us so...

Check raises in limit are always sexy.

A check raise on a 3+ person field is thus deemed a super sexy.

Don't worry there are plenty more where they came from

Me too. Even a total [censored] knows that NL is far better.
