I'm wondering if I was a wuss enough in this hand because of the flush out on the board esp by the river. I'm normally a 6 max player, so I would've played harder on the turn.

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 8, 9.
Hero calls, 5 folds, Button calls, SB raises, BB calls, Hero calls, Button calls.

Flop: (8 SB) 7, A, 6 (4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, Button raises, SB calls, BB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (7 BB) T (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, Button bets, SB calls, Hero calls.

River: (10 BB) 8 (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, Button checks.

Final Pot: 10 BB

Results in white below:
SB has Jh Kh (high card, ace).
Hero has 8d 9d (straight, ten high).
Button has 4s As (one pair, aces).
Outcome: Hero wins 10 BB.


edit: ran the HH through the converter

Preflop limp is ok aslong as you were at a very loose and passive table. If flops are frequently being seen for a raise or 3-4 handed it's probably -EV.

3-bet the flop for value, you have an equity edge.

I would check/raise the turn but betting out is good aswell. Check/calling the turn is really bad, you have a huge hand and you're just extracting the minimum. Your hand is also really vunerable because of the 3 clubs so you don't want your opponents to see the turn cheaply.

His hand isn't going to be good the majority of time when his bet is called and no better hands are going to fold.

i cap the flop because i have a huge pot equity to push, even though given the flush draw out there it's probably very small.

i bet the river because only a better hand will raise, and you can safely muck your hand. if you check, you must call the bet in case they are bluffing.

Silly TAgg, capping when any reasonable holding has an edge on you.

It gets worse if you give the other 2 players reasonable holdings. A flush draw being out really sucks. Don't cap, the joy of a straight draw in this situation is that you can often put in a check/raise when you hit.

So correct move is raise the turn and wait to see what Button does - sounds good.

What if Button re-raises, do you fold or grab your ankles and be willing to pay him off?

Fold against most players. Against more aggressive players you might call it down.
