I just hit my biggest win, after moving to $1/$2 NL a few days ago.

*** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to FatTabbyMama [8s 9h]
G_Bread: calls $2
mikeymn: calls $2
FatTabbyMama: calls $1

Normally I would dump connectors in all but LP. I hate playing the low to middle ones. They're only good if they hit the flop just right. But, new thinking - I'll take 'em in the SB assuming no one pops it up after me. There is no shame in being the first to check a flop if the cards don't come right.

*** FLOP *** [Jc 7s Td]
Um...I check!

FatTabbyMama: checks
bailey8: checks
G_Bread: checks
mikeymn: bets $6
FatTabbyMama: calls $6
bailey8: calls $6
G_Bread: raises $14 to $20
mikeymn: raises $36.80 to $56.80 and is all-in
FatTabbyMama: raises $36.80 to $93.60
bailey8: folds
G_Bread: calls $73.60

At this point, I figure one of them for a set, and the other...my best guess is a draw. If KQ is out there, a 9 or an Ace is gonna hurt.

*** TURN *** [Jc 7s Td] [Kc]
Hope nobody has AQ...

FatTabbyMama: bets $4.55 and is all-in
G_Bread: calls $4.55

*** RIVER *** [Jc 7s Td Kc] [3s]

*** SHOW DOWN ***

FatTabbyMama: shows [8s 9h] (a straight, Seven to Jack)

G_Bread: mucks hand (7s)

FatTabbyMama collected $82.70 from side pot

mikeymn: mucks hand (QJ)

FatTabbyMama collected $181.40 from main pot


I was kinda proud of myself with that one, not that I really did much in the hand...
