If it didn't show up I would have folded after the turn, but did I play this correctly or was I a lucky fish? Thanks guys.

On the flop the pot is offering 8 to 1. You can really only count 3 outs (3 tens that aren't a spade), so chance to hit is just about 16 to 1. So no the pot odds definately didn't justify fishing for the 10. Betting out when the 10 hits isn't too too bad on these limits b/c most will still usually call, raise, and re-raise w/ wreckless abandon but I would of definately gone for a check raise considering you have 3 guys behind you that put in plenty of action on the flop. When the guy re-raised you you should of definately raised back and same w/ the river. On these limits it's almost a travesty that you didn't get both the turn and river capped.   Last edit: 07/01/2006 13:55

iFear.ChaoS   United States. Jan 07 2006 14:06. Posts 267 lol, good point . Alrighty, I just didn't bet too heavily because I thought for sure the way these kids were betting, one at least had a king and we would split the pot anyways. I guess that would have no real effect on the decisions however, and I should raise back regardless. Thanks
