Assuming he isn't known for being a maniac, I'd fold.

At best, you're up againt T8, and even then he has outs.

If he has higher trips, you're screwed.

If he has the st8, you don't really have the pot odds to call.

I personally would have rasied again on the flop, but that's just me... Were you trapping here with the final call or playing cautiously?


If I had to guess his hand, I'd say he'd flopped the straight. I would think he'd bet harder with top 2 pair.

All the signals suggest you're behind, and you haven't committed too much money yet.


Tough one though...

I'm sure people will disagree with me...

Cmon... what happened?   :)

I would like to say fold, but i would probably call, no doubt this is why i am not a good NL cash player!


I would have thought 88 and TT would have raised pre flop, i am thinking maybe he has slow played AA?? I would call hoping he is AT

But my bet is he slowplayed AA, lets hear it!

I agree with the above post, I think he has slow played an over pair, or maybe hit 2 pair with the 10. he could have flopped the straight but not my first thought and even if you find he has you still got the chance for the boat...I CALL   but then close my eyes lol

I'm unconivinced that he'd slowplay the overpair from the big blind with two others in and then make a minumum bet on the flop. Although possible, I think it'd be an awful play.

I may be proved wrong though as I'm not sure Ace2Mouth would post this if he lost. :D

razmataz collected $372 from Main pot
----- SUMMARY -----
Total pot $375 Main pot $372 Rake $3
Board [8s 6c Td Ah]
Seat 1: razmataz (big blind) showed [7h 9c] and won ($372) with A Straight, Ten high
Seat 3: Ace2mouth folded on the Turn
Seat 4: Ward001 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 5: desertfox (button) folded on the Flop



We play the game to hit flops like this but the raise to $50 was just too suspicious and something said play it easy and i was having a pop on the turn where i think if he calls i'm winning any raise i'm screwed. The ace didn't scare me at all, in fact i quite liked it as it would expose any weaker hand than a straight as it will probably scare him more than me. My reasoning maybe naff but a decent fold i hope you'll agree.

Well, as I said previously, I agree with the fold.

That's just my opinion though.

Good fold (in hindsight)
