It was so obvious that I was on a draw here that its not even funny but the villain did not cut off my odds and allowed me to improve. The first call may have been questionable (tilt). Once I picked up the OESD + FLUSH I was stayin for a $7 bet into a $30 pot. (Gotta add all the bets +calls to the running totals listed to the left up there)

If the pot hadnt been so big and if villain would have bet alot bigger I would have folded immediately.

I know that usually its not good to draw to the ghey end of a straight but it was obvious this guy was on a set or 2 pair and I knew that making my hand would pay off. Poor guy had taken several beatings before this hand to the tune of 2 buyins. But I had taken my beatings too so sorry dude!


EDIT - getting ready to go to work so I dont have time to look but if anyone sees anything wrong with the fact that I started wtih 29 bucks before this hand, went all in, and ended up with less than double my amount. Whats that all about? Cant be that much rake.

I make it that you are about $11 short.

EDIT - I looked at the original hand history and the pots listed were alot bigger so I think that the hand converter only showed my actual profit. So, I think its all good...
