Played a hand yesterday afternoon at the local casino. They are having a holiday tournament so the action has been pretty good with a mix of regs and randoms.
Hero ($209) - Mid 30's, white and has been playing fairly TAG. Only real hand of substance was where I flopped second nut flush and ended up folding face up when both turn and river paired board.
V1 ($261) - Younger reg. I have seen him in the room a lot, but only remember playing with him one occasion. He has been aggressive, but has only been sitting for about an orbit.
V2 (Covers) - Older guy that I also don't know much about. He has also recently sat down at the table. He had just lost a big hand and rebought in for the table maximum.
10 handed game. V2 button straddles to $10. SB calls, BB calls, V2 calls in UTG+1 and I have K
10
in MP3 (I don't love my limp here, but I was pretty confident HJ and CO would likely call but would never raise). CO calls and V2 checks.
($60) - Flop comes 10

Checks to V1 who bets $45. I call $45. Folds around to V2, who raises to $250 (effectively putting us both all in as V1 has $251). V1 goes all in for the additional $1. Hero?
Pot now has $503 in it and I have $154 left. I am not getting the odds to call to the flush - is my top pair ever good in this spot?
