I've sat down at the Empire in a new £1/2 game with £400 and raised 2/3 of the hands in half an hour. The guy sitting on my right got up when a seat became available to my left and commented to the table it was because of me.

My image is pretty crazy. I stacked one guy because of a hand where a kid who was virtually felted the hand before moved in for £7 and got 2 callers including this massive dousche who had been commentating since I sat down. He had a ridic annoying face too. I moved in for £300 having not looked at my hand and both guys fold apart from dousche who snapped. Anyway the J55 flop fitted my J5 nicely and I am now on around £650....

I straddle UTG for £4 and there are 3 limps. SB and BB also call and I check with    two spades.

The flop...    Two Clubs

SB bets a very weak £7, BB calls and I raise to £36.

A chinese guy who is playing his second hand at the table (playing £400) and not seen any of my madness thinks for about 30 seconds and does a flat call. Everyone else gets out of the way.

The turn brings the  .

What do people thing of the flop action?

What do people think is best for the turn?

check fold... You are only beating  x on the river... Judging by his call on the flop it looks like he's called you with a hand like  x so bluffing at the river is not my line...

seems like a good place to bluff given our hand has almost no showdown value. need to know stacks to see if a jam or crai is better.

when ur image is cleanish though, id rather u barreled the turn big enough to set up a river shove

I was gonna say check the turn but I stopped cos I said check on another thread once and it was retarded. However now I'm not the first to say it I'll stick my neck out and say I like the check cos he has flush draws a lot of the time and he's not folding either way so try and get a free river imo. On river default line is probably to just give up but I might try a 1/3rd pot bet see if I can get a sighing fold, it only needs to happen 25% of the time for the bet to turn a profit. £65 or £70.

This was my thinking too James. When oppo dwell-overcalled the flop raise I thought he was likely to have a fd or draw of some sort.

Nice to see someone doing a flat call.

Can we also have flush draws referred to as a chance to create ethnic majority of the board?

I dwell called as everything told me oppo was bluffing.

Brag: I was right. 'He sighed and said you must win, I bluff'

Beat: He had Q10 and won the pot.
