Straight cooler? o

[dejection08]

I know its a sin in poker to go bust in a limp pot but does anyone else see a way to lay it down. Since its early in the Tourney I have very little read on the player. from the way he played it he could have had 2pr, of floped a set. Does anyone else go broke here?

Does anyone else go broke here?

Yes.

I have a certain distaste for getting too heavily involved with hands that I am only playing because I checked my option in the BB, but if I flop that straight, I don't mind. It's when I make 2 pair with my 4-7o on a flop of K-7-4 that I get weary when someone shows alot of interest in putting alot of chips in. Seems to turn out bad, even when I do have the best hand when the chips get all in.

I remember one SNG I played and we were down to 4 and I spiked two pair like that in a limped pot, we got it all in on the turn, the guy had rockets and the river paired the turn card and he made a better two pair. Stung so bad, but that is just the most memorable of many such instances in my poker career.

You'll take a lot worse beats than overpair vs bottom two. Run it through poker stove.

OP - never fold here.

Raise flop big. Lead turn. You should've been allin against T9 on the flop.
