Could have just folded the turn maybe?But not only that, wtf is with the river fold by BB. Sure the board paired but what hands bet 3-bet the flop then checkraise a capper on the turn then fold a river.

I don't think you can fold the turn since you have 8 usually super clean outs in a big pot with big implied odds.This hand looks like you got cheated with the post-flop action, but I think if they were really teaming you then BB would have bet/folded the river, since that would give them the best chance to make you fold. Or maybe they were looking to check/raise/3-bet you again? I'd just keep an eye out for their screen names, or maybe email Party and ask them to investigate or keep a close eye on the players in the future.

Looks to me that the BB had two diamonds with the 6 :club: pushing a diamond flush and an open-ended str8 draw. With all the betting he could put one of the players on a set and cool down completely after he not only missed the flush or draw, but also saw the board paired. Saving a bet at the end there does make some sort of sense if he has his oppontnets tagged as being non-bluffers.Might have had A :D 6 :D , which can be pushed a bit more preflop five-handed.Just a guess of course, but it fits.Have you calculated your odds versus a set? You are a 74% dog against top set of 7's and 66% dog against a set of 4's or 5's. This is strictly a heads up calculation. If you give the other player a flush draw, say A :D K :) , top set of 7's is a 58% winner, the A :) K :) is 25% to win, and you are 15%.Now, only you know how tight and what range of hands are played by your opponents, so you have to guage how likely you are facing a real hand. It is such a big pot you should give your opponents credit for something, especially at the $10/$20 level.I can't fault you for pushing an open-ended str8 draw like that but I usually put the breaks on a bit If I get a lot of resistance, because it is a good hand, but not a great hand, when you consider how you stack up to other playable handsWhen the flop has a flush draw, you know the str8 draw with 6 :) 6 :) is roughly 50-50 with a flush draw like A :) K :) and you are just feeding the rake for a coinflip, though it can be argued the rake is maximized anyways if the betting is wild. Sure you will be happy to win a big pot but you understand that 50% of the time you are losing a big pot. You are just feeding your variance here.Then there is the fun times when you make your str8 but also allow the flush :) .If you have this open-ended str8, but you are facing an overpair such as 88 or 99, you are a 25% dog.As long as you are getting the odds, it is ok.Thanks for posting this hand and good luck in your games.
