Fold preflop.
But since you didn't, you should clearly go all in vs two other players when you're holding middle pair vs a possible straight and a possible flush, and a likely overpair.
Not meaning to sound like a total *** for the second time today, but how is this even a question? |

| I'm guessing that you checked and won the pot. You were wondering if you missed a bet perhaps. Check that river. Give yourself a chance to steal this pot without risking anything. You probably wouldn't have gotten called anyway, unless of course you were beat. |

Zuchov - At what point are you saying all in? On the flop?
There are two reasons why I posted it. The first is that I'm never quite sure how much to push a middle pair. By the time I got to the river had to worry about the straight, the flush, and two overcards to my 10. I had made a couple of feeler bets and had not scared everyone away. The second reason is that Urban keeps encouraging posting of hands as a way for all of us to learn.
Grip - nope, I went one dummer and made a bet of 400 to steal the pot. I'm not sure why...had that feeling that they were toast. One of the checkers folded, the other called.
Urban - I typically don't play this hand...but I decided to take a walk on the wild side since I was on the button.
Here's what happened:
poker_pat5000 checks
daveyacri2003 checks
wbtczn bets 400
poker_pat5000 folds
daveyacri2003 calls 400
*** SHOW DOWN ***
wbtczn shows [Td Qc] (a pair of Tens)
daveyacri2003 shows [9h As] (a pair of Aces)
daveyacri2003 wins the pot (1,565) with a pair of Aces
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 1,565 | Rake 0
Board: [Js Ac 2c 6c Ts]
Seat 1: 24BUTTER (small blind) folded before the Flop
Seat 2: poker_pat5000 (big blind) folded on the River
Seat 3: ajax090 didn't bet (folded)
Seat 4: Diggio didn't bet (folded)
Seat 5: Plethora-O-Fun didn't bet (folded)
Seat 6: azraider didn't bet (folded)
Seat 7: daveyacri2003 showed [9h As] and won (1,565) with a pair of Aces
Seat 8: wpb55889 folded before the Flop
Seat 9: wbtczn (button) showed [Td Qc] and lost with a pair of Tens |

At which ever point makes me sound like more of an ***. I was being sarcastic. You should have folded your hand on every betting round. |
