Hey. I limped in with 89s and hit a nice straight on the flop. Not many draws on the board that could beat me. So I just wanted to extract as much money as possible. I was not sure how to act after the flop when there was one min raise and then a re-raise ahead of me. I just called thinking i wanted more people to join. Should I have raised?

I call here too. It would take a miracle for you to be beat on later rounds w/this rainbow flop

I like your line of play. The bet on the turn is a must, with the A helping you get all in =) nh


I´d also call, since MP2 made big re-raise and people won´t call 40 cents with random hands. .Nh
