No limit cash game on party poker. I have $30 in front of meI'm in late position with 9 10 off so I call behind a few other limpers.Button raises to $1. Everyone calls, I call. (The button had been playing supa aggressive and bluffing a fair amount)Flop: 8 J 2 (rainbow)Checked to the Button who bets $2, I raise with an open ended straight draw (Pretty dumb of me in hind sight. Why would I raise here? I want more people in the pot if I hit my draw!!)Anyway, button reraises to $6 so I just call. It's heads up now thanks to my idiotic raiseTurn is 3 of diamonds putting 2 diamonds on board.He bets $4. I call due to pot/implied oddsRiver is the Q of diamonds completing my straight and putting 3 diamonds on board.He puts me all in for $19.What would you do here with about $30 already in the pot?

I call. I don't think he was betting a runner-runner flush draw from the post-flop bet. He may have had JX suited in :D, but that would just be bad luck for you. You can beat his AA, KK, or QQ that he may have been betting the whole hand. Though his weak turn bet indicates possible bad bluff.I Call!

Absofreakinloooooootely. You gotta call dude. He probably flopped a set of J's at best... If he's got the flush, well, thas a bad beat.

not sure what level the blinds were, but the $1 raise pre-flop seems very small for a high pocket pair to me, or maybe a pocket pair. Looks more like an ace king, ace queen, ace jack, or king queen, as you don't raise with pocket pairs with those limpers unless it is over 8's (at least I wouldn't...lol). I can't see him betting only $4 on the turn with ace jack of diamonds for example(after re-raising you six on the flop), looks more like he was trying to scare away the draws after the flop, saw the turn brought another diamond so he got scared, then when the third diamond came, if he DID have the ace jack, it is a dumb bet as you may fold, meaning he wins nothing else unless you made a hand. That screams to me that he had top pair good kicker or maybe a set. Either way, you win. Call that bet in my mind. :wink:

Party Poker has hand histories, it would be easier for everyone to analyze and respond to your hand if you used it.
i saw him at the riverbank. he was breaking bread and giving thanks. with crosses made of pipes and planks. leaned up against the nitrous tanks.
he said take a hit. hold your breath and i'll dunk your head. then when you wake up, you'll be high as hell and born again.

I called and he showed A 7 diamonds. Tried multiple bluffs and backed into the nuts.I am aware that Party has hand histories but I'm at work and just thought I'd post with some free time.I don't think it was that difficult to read/digest/analyzeThanks for the feedback

You ran into a lucky moron, that you will make money off of in the future. $4 bet on turn seems like a weak bluffing bet.

well, he played it totally different than I would have played it, from pre-flop to the river. He is either a genius or a moron, either way, it doesn't help you here. :cry:
