MP1 caps flop AND turn on a flush draw!!!
WTF.... Is that stupid or it's just me???
It worked for him though :P

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

Preflop: Hero is SB with K, J.
2 folds, MP1 calls, 4 folds, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) 9, Q, T (3 players)
Hero bets, BB folds, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP1 caps, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.50 BB) 7 (2 players)
Hero bets, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP1 caps, Hero calls.

River: (13.50 BB) A (2 players)
Hero checks, MP1 bets, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 15.50 BB

Results in white below:
MP1 has 8c Jc (flush, ace high).
Hero has Kh Js (straight, ace high).
Outcome: MP1 wins 15.50 BB.

He must have known it was coming
Superb play sir...I always call 20% of my stack off with a gutshot draw. Excuse me while I race for my wallet.

river play is interesting. Did you think he got the flush? You seem amazed that he would cap both flop and turn on a draw.

oh well, worked out better for you in the end.

One thing quick...He capped a straight...and had a flush draw...It actually wasnt that bad of a play on his part I guess.

Check/calling that river sucks, how often is he going to have a flush given the flop and turn actions? Bet/call as a minimum but I would bet/3-bet.

Apart from the preflop limp I think MP1 played his hand perfectly.

Agree with Phyl - bet the river, call the raise.
