Man, I'm acting like a fool this morning.

Total number of players : 10
Seat 1: jiggers2 ( $131.10)
Seat 2: Pokr_Rush ( $51.55)
Seat 3: mfmpty41 ( $65.80)
Seat 4: Bugs_B66 ( $62.10)
Seat 5: CabanaBoy111 ( $53.10)

Cards_1fan folds.
jiggers2 folds.
Pokr_Rush folds.
mfmpty41 folds.
CabanaBoy111 calls (0.50)
stebaird checks.
buZZub38 folds.
McKim raises (1.75) to 2
hannikjon folds.
CabanaBoy111 calls (1.50)
stebaird folds.
** Dealing Flop ** : [ Qs, 7c, Jc ]
McKim bets (3)
CabanaBoy111 raises (7) to 7

Ok, at this point I think I need to find out where I am. He could be semi bluffing with a flush draw. If that's the case, it's a little tough for him to call my reraise. If he does, well, I'll evaluate it at that time.

McKim raises (12) to 15
CabanaBoy111 calls (8)


Ok, this is where I should slow down now. I should check the turn to see what he does. If he bets heavy, I fold. The argument against this is that if he does have a flush draw, I should make him pay to see that club.

** Dealing Turn ** : [ Ts ]
McKim bets (20)

Obviously I do not do the right thing and check on the turn like I think I should have.

CabanaBoy111 raises (36.10) to 36.10
CabanaBoy111 is all-In.
McKim calls (16.10)

Think maybe I should have saved my $16 here? At this time the pot was about $70. If I have a little doubt as to the strength of his hand, I think I am right to call. If he does have me dominated with a set, I do have four outs to the straight (if a King comes.)

** Dealing River ** : [ As ]
Creating Main Pot with $104.20 with CabanaBoy111
