Ok another hand I feel I messed up.
Virgilace is pretty loose/passive. No read on other guy.
Tight table, running at 30% P/F

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hand #166073298 at table: Table TH 1618
Started: Sun Jan 01 20:24:47 2006

gomiki is at seat 1 with 173.46
EarlLambie is at seat 2 with 114.27
plazzaking is at seat 3 with 209.25
All-in4Fun is at seat 4 with 91.50
Virgilace is at seat 5 with 22.00
wouldman is at seat 6 with 49.00
undermined is at seat 8 with 98.50
cin77 is at seat 9 with 50.59
Benblanco is at seat 10 with 276.32

Virgilace posts the large blind 1.00
All-in4Fun posts the small blind 0.50

All-in4Fun: 9h, 8h

Pre-flop:

wouldman: Fold
undermined: Fold
cin77: Call 1.00
Benblanco: Call 1.00
gomiki: Fold
EarlLambie: Call 1.00
plazzaking: Fold
All-in4Fun: Call 1.00
Virgilace: Check

Pot: $5
Flop (Board: 6s, 7c, 7s):

All-in4Fun: Check
Virgilace: Bet 2.00
cin77: Call 2.00
Benblanco: Fold
EarlLambie: Raise 5.00
All-in4Fun: Call 5.00
Virgilace: Call 5.00
cin77: Call 5.00

Ok a note about this flop call above. I realise I'm not getting immediate odds but I am pretty sure Virgilace and cin77 will simply call this raise. I think Virgilace's bet was a blocking bet and he's pretty passive so he's not going to reraise. cin77 called the first bet with much of nothing but good pot odds. Also if I figure EarlLambie for trip 7's I have good implied odds. Based on all this I call and end up going to the turn getting propper pot odds.

Pot: $25
Turn (Board: 6s, 7c, 7s, 5h):

All-in4Fun: Check
Virgilace: Bet 7.00
cin77: Call 7.00
EarlLambie: Raise 15.00
All-in4Fun: Call 15.00
Virgilace: All in
cin77: Fold

I know I messed up here. I didn't realise that Virgilace had only $17 left on the turn. I called the 15$ raise not noticing that EarlLambie would have the chance again. Silly mistake I know Now I know EarlLambie has at least a strong 7. I feel I really made a mess of the rest of this.

EarlLambie: Raise 30.00
All-in4Fun: Call 30.00

River (Board: 6s, 7c, 7s, 5h, 2h):

I really considered folding this river but I just couldnt do it. He has one of 3 hands here as I see it, trip 7's a straight or FH.

All-in4Fun: Check
EarlLambie: Bet 56.00
All-in4Fun: All in

Can you fold this hand? If not where should I have put my stack in and what are the benefits of unloading at that point in the hand?

messy
The action on the flop suggests that the set/trips is being defended. After that i think your calling all the way and getting stacked if someone filled up flopped the house.

Think I might have to fold that flop. Your out of position reducing the money you make if you hit, its highly likely that some of your outs are tainted and you could even be drawing dead which I think counters any implied odds you may have.

As played I think the rest is fine, I'd call that river.

With position, I might not be so quick to fold, but chasing draws out of position gets very ugly if you miss on the turn, and even if you hit it, you can't be entirely confident your hand is good since the board was paired to begin with.

i dont like using implied odds like this when im not drawing to the nuts. As it went i think you have to call the river but i fold the flop.

if you've noticed the tables so tight, why not move tables, why play at a tight one if more looser ones are available?

Looks like I need to start taking account of dead outs when I'm drawing at hands. Something I haven't really been doing, I'll start now.

And SinkRox I didn't really have a choice, where I play is a pretty small site and there was only 3 100nl tables available at the time and they were all pretty tight. Usually the place is vary loose, dunno what was up.

ty all.
