V1(200), V2(110), V3(180) in early/mid position are all similar passive, chasing, calling stations, they were stradding some

Hero(900) Been on a good run, raising a lot pre, involved in a couple big pots I won at showdown

I come back from a break and post the $4 to play.

Full table, 6-7 limpers, I check with Q

in CO

Flop($20) K

V1 bets 15, V2 and V3 call, Hero calls,

Turn($80) 3

V1 checks, V2 bets 20, V3 calls, Hero raises to 75
V1 flats, V2 calls, V3 folds

River($325) 8

V1 checks, V2 AI for $28, Hero throws in the $28, V1 calls

Fold flop after the bet gets 2 calls. Painful to be folding a good flush draw but once the first bet gets 2 calls your in trouble. Your draw isn't anywhere near the nuts on the paired board. If somebody has KX or a nut flush draw your drawing thin to dead already and you could easily be facing both on this board.

You will occasionally be facing random weirdness and/or worse draws but even then a worse flush draw takes enough of your outs that villains have to be on garbage before you have good equity.

I did think along those lines as well - I figured any T and QJ/AQ and worse FDs were prolly calls by Vs that I talked myself into a call

Terrible run out for you.

When you raise turn, probably makes sense to raise an amount that puts V2 all in. Leaving him with $28 behind doesn't seem the best sizing.

V1 leads flop then cold calls 75 on turn? I guess you have to put him on a K, maybe KxJh? Hard to put him on AhKx, given no raise pre flop. Can't see V1 calling river without a heart, even for just $28.

Terrible run out for your hand. I think the only thing I'd do differently here is bigger on the turn; once you hit your hand, charge them the max. Any heart is bad for you, and any player with Kx is drawing live.
