    Default I hate being nervous

    There were not a lot of seats available. I hated this room as soon as I stepped in, I was getting ready to leave as soon as the blinds came back around. I liked these cards, especially with a cheap flop on the button. I was scared of the re-raise, (I'm always scared when pushed all-in) But how can you fold the nuts?

    I think this may have been too big of a raise, but I wanted to get a few people out, I'd hate to play this kind of hand against 4 others, too many opportunities to out-draw.

    I'm against it.

    Well played, over betting the pot in this situation is acceptable as the only hand you can worry about is 2 s and they are only going to win 1/3 of the time.

    You played it well.
    Poker is all about the long long long long long long long term . . .

    is there ever a time you flop a straight when there ISN'T a flush draw as well?

    you played it well.
