I feel like I played this pretty well, but maybe not. I'd like some feedback on it. My main interest is in the turn. Should I fold to his first raise, or do you think a re-raise is a good idea to get more information? Is the re-raise a good amount? Also, should I fold when he goes all-in? I felt like he definitely was ahead there, but that was a juicy pot with pretty decent odds to call with two pair... what do you think?

It's tough to think you're good here. Tough to get away from it though; TT, JJ probably make the same play, maybe even a poor player with A9 or K9. Looks like you're up against a set or at least a semi-bluffing flush/straight draw.

RK luber definately looks like a draw...

I might re-raise it an additional 20, but I think your bet is fine. Pepesale may just be aggro thinking you all limped with QJ or med. pocket pairs and his taking his T8o to the death w/a gutshot + 5 outs for set/better 2pr if he doesn't catch.

Tough without a read. I probably lay this down...

I won't give away the ending just yet, but I will tell you my read and why I folded. I thought when he raised me he might have caught top pair (tens) with a good kicker, or maybe he was on a draw and going crazy like people do. I of course figured rkluber for a calling station with a draw, probably the flush. When pepesale went all in I briefly thought he might have the flush draw madness as well, but then I noticed if he had 78 he just completed a straight. So I put him on 78 and let it go.

Ignoring the preflop "play," no you cannot fold to his first raise. Though turn raises have shown to be the best indicator of a good hand, you had to pump it up again to actually see where you were. If you felt your opponent would not do that without having two pair beat (which is fairly common) then your fold was right.

Ha. Can't let that one go, can ya? I won't defend that much, I was just playing loose for a while and enjoying an hour long card-catching contest against some real calling stations. I find playing suited connectors and gappers works very well in those games, but in this case limping a two-gapper from early position was pretty suspect, I admit. Cost me some money too, although that really had nothing to do with the hand itself - any two pair would have posed the same problems.

I'm going through cycles lately of being too loose/passive in the pre-flop play at 6max games. I think it's a hangover from when I was doing it on purpose, as a learning experience. A few weeks of that will put you in a frame of mind where any two cards that are remotely close to each other looks like a limping hand.

I had similar problems. My play shifted from TAgg to sLPAgg and back again from time to time.

i would try to play this hand in later position so you have more information on the flop/turn.
