Having so many chips to play aruond with i decided to call. My real goal was to post this hand on the deuce seven offsuit site, but then after the flop i thought i could really win the hand.

I went for check raise on flop but he checked behind, and then called my turn bet. I knew he had 2 over's and thought he would check down with a pocket pair wanting a showdown. Thats why i called the river.

sittin at 1st by 10k right now--first pays 5,000 i'm crossing my fingers

i don't usually 'defend my blind' from utg raises, but still a fun hand.

sounds like you are doing good, don't start playing dumb as a big stack! play solid.

this would be why I never min raise. vnh.
