 What's bad? Your flop raise failed and you are probably behind I dont see how you can call the turn.

Because the Button was really short stacked, and was probably going to the rail with any 2?

It was supposed to be "Bad?" but, in general, what are the thoughts on taking free cards while not last to act? I thought this monkey would fold, obviously, or I wouldn't have done it.

The question begs whether raising the flop for free cards when not closing the action and with about 4 clean outs is wise.

Why do I do this shit? I need to slow down and start thinking. Everythings so obvious in retrospect, but so, "god damnit!" when I'm playing.
