...and you lose, but I believe still properly played. The turn was pyrite perhaps?

Lousy flop. Turn gives you some hope.

Well played. You put in the minimum amount after the flop. Folding on the river at least for me is out of the question unless I have GREAT reads.

leaning more action ott. Tight guy is capped by cc 2x pre and only overcalls flop getting 22:1 when he could jam several heart draws 3ways. Then he checks when the turn tends to kill action. There's so few flushes available and lag is gonna lag he has *all sets* imho. Kicking out tight guy straights would be a huge win. But, sure, some of our boat outs are probably dead. If lag can cap AJo pre I guess more power to him but sometimes he won't have a heart in that combo and has to worry what we're raising with.

There are many players who can be described as "good LAGs" who are going to check back the turn here, closing the action, in the three-way pot, with most hands worse than a straight. And when we are behind and we raise against the best hand, we're likely just blowing out the players behind us who are going to pad the equity of our draw. I think the play here is to call and then just lead out when we fill up on the river.

The button had some JJ Jts QJs type hands here. He will ocassionally show with the 76 98hh type hands.

The nit is the type to check/call a j on turn but would donk or raise a flush
