Chips: 4,497 | | | Flopped Straight at the Wynn. WWYD? I'm playing LAG and raising from position and sweeping blinds up.
I'm in the cut-off and I look down to see 89c and I raise to $12 with four limpers in front of me. I get one caller from a pretty bad player to my immediate right.
He has been bleeding chips since he sat down and he is giving out strategy like the nutty professor. Hes a nice guy and I like him, but he's really backwards on a lot of stuff and plays hands to far.
Hes got about $150 or so and I've got $225 or so.
Flop 567 with two spades.
I bet out $20, he calls.
Turn is a Th.
I bet $45, he calls
River is a Qs, he shoves for $74
Let me hear what you think...

I'm guessing he was playing a flopped set. Poorly. |

Preflop - the $12 bet is fine, I might limp sometimes joping to flop the joint.
Flop - personally, I woulr have bet more here with 2 to a suit out there. I would at least bet the pot if not slightly overbet the pot and pray the 3rd suit dont fall!
Turn - PUSH! I already gave the possible flush draw one card, I dont want to give another one and get stacked. I would rather loose a small amount of value bet that my whole stack.

BTW I say he has a flush. Bad players love draws.

L | Tell me about it.
Unfortunately I didn't have a read on this guy like I did the last time we played at the Wynn. Do you remember that hand?

L | This makes me think he might have it as well. From experience, most of the players in the 1/3 game at the Wynn were not poker players. |
