This hand was played a while ago and I"m trying to remember the full details. This was a hand where i had no plan whatsoever at all.

Hero (BB) $280

Villain (MP) $300


I had Jc8s.


There were probably 7 limpers. Pot is $16


Flop comes

5s6s7s


At first i was going to check fold only to then saw... oh wait a minute i have the 8 of spades but i had checked already


Guy in MP bets like $13 into $16 everyone folds. I call.


Turn comes Jc.


This is where i have no clue what I'm doing. Not only do i have the straight flush draw... now i hit my jack. So i have pair of jacks and a straight flush draw. I was just lost here so i checked.


Villain bets like $27 into $40 pot. I call. Is this bad? I mean... i can't c/r here right?


River comes 10s. I checked and he checked right behind and said 2 pair. I showed my flush and table went wow straight flush draw.



In this hand... my mind was pretty frozen. I had no plan at all what to do. Had i not check on the flop by accident because i thought i didn't have a spade... then i wouldn't have gotten myself into this situation. During this whole time... I didn't even try to put him on a hand because the whole time i was thinking... come on 4s or 9s.


When the turn came and i check and hen he bet $27 into $40.... I thought a few seconds and thought he doesn't have a flush but might have flopped a straight. But for some reason... i kept leaning towards him having like A6 or K6 with one spade. But thing is if i think he had that... then i would be ahead when the turn came. What is my best option on the turn when i hit a pair of jacks? Should i lead here?


Then when the river came... I obviously like that i made a flush but i just had the 8 high flush so it was a pretty bad card. So any spade he had... well i lost to. But then again... he bet pretty big on turn so i did thought maybe he doesn't want me to draw to a spade.


Opinions?

your hand is shyt.

- crap straight draw on a monotone board
- crap 8 high flush draw
- nothing is disguised
- 2 clean outs... which are so obvious only a complete moron would pay you off if they come in
- you hit a flush and can't even value bet it.
