StormTL was tightpassive and the other one was a callingstation.
I didn't want to raise because i was putting him on AT+ because he only bet half of the pot on the turn and the river, and the other was just calling everything so i could do the rope a dope technique.
Good?

If you think you're good, why not push the river? I don't play it this way at all... I re-raise pre-flop to $5 and if you still have two callers and MP1 bets the flop, I raise with the flush draw on the board. I know that Button isn't getting the right odds for his draw, but it's pretty close. If this hand is HU against MP1 then I think this line is better, but I'd still throw in a raise on the turn or river. With the button behind I think you should play it fast.

There is no real point in commenting on this hand, and by commenting I mean saying it sucks balls.

ok, i can understand not raising the flop even though you almost certainly have the best hand, but if you just call you MUST raise the turn OR river. By the river, Im almost 100% ive got him crushed. What do we fear? A weak betting AT?

You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

I like playing hands like this from time to time. MP1 is betting your hand for you the whole time and building a nice pot. By the river, you have absolutely no idea where you are really at, so I don't mind the call - the pot is a monster already, and you may get the overcall by the button.

NH - with the caveat, don't play it this way every time, or even half the time.
