Yes. I'd just raise the flop and river a bit more.

Just what I was going to say. Pot the flop and bet at least half the pot on the river.

Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

The size of the flop raise wasn't bad. Pity you didn't get the free card though.

Yes, that turn bet is a bit strange.. A made hand would c/r right? So it's a block bet? TPNK/lower flush draw? I'm interested in the results here; my guess is 8x.

Nice job punishing the dipshit who decided to limp into your decent blind...he would've otherwise min-bet or potted the flop (but pot being only $2) and the whole damn situation is just silly.

Raise me and see if you can steal my blind (plenty of times you can have my blind 73 offsuit) or fricking fold - don't waste the entire table's time deciding you have pot odds to limp with your 78o after the entire table has folded around...gimme a break. This isn't a damn tourney.

Sorry - pet peeve

 unless I have some kinda crap like 26 I generally always raise first in with a BotB, whether I am small or big (obviously its always better with position in BB).

I'm with Iowa, chances are he is still stuck on the thought you were raising just to buy blinds in an unopened pot so theres a good chance he is putting you on nothing and willing to donk off some more chips.

I'll also add this is one of my fav scenarios - picking up a playable hand in a blind or on the button to an unopened pot. Most players at this level think they know everything about anything and will put you on a simple positional raise and end up costing themselves more when you hit. Its a beautiful thing.

If you are going to overpay for your draw, you better make up that money on the back end. I raise the river more when I hit my nut flush here.
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

Don't forget about my three Aces.

I was even money to win on the flop with my 12 outs. The turn call might have been slightly over payed.
