I got off to a good start then came hand 7 that looked so promising.
Hand 7. I'm MP2 w/Ks Js. UTG & UTG+1 limp in w/30, MP1 folds, I limp in as does the HJ, CO & BTN, SB folds & BB checks. A nice multiway pot. Flop 10h 9h Qd. I look at it for a bit and realize I flopped a straight! BB & UTG check, UTG+1 bets the pot of 225, I raise to 450, HJ folds, CO calls, BTN, BB & UTG fold, UTG+1 reraises all-in w/their last 1050 chips. I figure they also have a straight and doubt they are on a flush draw. I call & the CO calls. Turn 6d. So far so good, though there are flush draws out there. I decide to bet my last 450 and the CO calls. CO shows Jh 4h, having a flush draw. UTG+1 shows Qh 10s, having top two pair. I'm hoping for a black card or diamond on the River. River Kh. BOOM. So much for me this session.
I feel I played that well and gave it all I could to try and keep away players with flush draws. I could have held back that last 450 and still be in the session but at that point I felt I had the best hand or at least tied for it and if they were going for a draw it would cost them a bit more (they only had 105 chips left after they called). I could have gone all-in on the flop instead of just call the 1275 raise but I don't feel that would have detered the CO since he was willing to call the 1275 too. So go the cards.
