    Default A hand from today.

    Reads on BarracudaBoy are weak. I've seen him play around before and know he is tricky. Any chance I can dump this on the turn after he check-calls, check-raises. I'm afraid my hand was transparent by the turn and shoulda dumped it.

    i guess my thoughts would be that the turn very likely did not help opp so he must have had something good to start with, my real problem here would be putting him on QJ - i know i wouldn't call a 5x pfr in EP with that... and why he wouldnt raise up the flop bet.. just like you put it, tricky.

    Don't post results for better discussion. BAD moderator!

    Good lord that's a scary amount of callers preflop. Is that normal for the Party games?

    You have to slow down on the turn. After he calls your flop bet you have to know you're pretty much toast. What else can he flat call with after he called your preflop raise other than a hand that is killing you? I bet the same amount on the turn as I did on the flop and get the hell out when he pushes.
    TylerK: its just gambling if i want to worry about money i'll go to work lol

    The results were neccessary. I had to let people know that I called off my stack while I was behind. I wanted to know if there was anyway to dump it by the turn.

    I didn't know how much credit to give him for how tricky he is. Like I said, my hand was very well defined when he pushed. But he pushed into a huge pot with a lot of credibility. He'll probably make this play with AQ but I don't think I have enough of a reason to call.

    As far as the action goes, If you raise with silly hands in silly positions the table starts to call your silly raises from silly positions. I try to raise with 9Ts UTG once or twice for emphasis. I'm not advocating the play. But I was setting up the table.

    that is why I don't like pot committing myself with high PP with so many callers.

    That being the case, maybe you could have raised more preflop? I personally doubt I raise more than 5xBB UTG with KK ever, but maybe you could have with the way the table was set up.

    How was the overall level of aggression at the table? Any chance of getting in a limp-reraise here?

    I tried to limp-raise with QQ. I limped figuring I'll limp to set if i don't get to re-raise and it didn't work as the entire table limped behind me and I mucked on a J high flop.
