Pretty standard mix of players, three very splashy types, one rock who plays one hand every couple of orbits, a station who pays no heed to pot odds if he has a draw and a couple of tightish passives.
Plus me, I aim for tight aggressive but when I’m well ahead I can tend to being defensive of my stack and when I’m behind I can find myself being loose and gambly (which is rarely a recipe for success)

So, to the hand.

Utg raises to £7 pre and is called in four spots including BTN and BB both splashy.
I call from SB with 9 10 o
Flop is J83rb

I lead for £10 from c £700
BB raises to £30 from similar
Folds to BTN who jams £155

We?

I fold pre but that's just me.

I'm not donking out 10 into 29 otf, I would just check and I'm folding as played.

We fold pre.

As played pre, check flop, with plan to c/r if someone bets and nobody raises before action is back to us.

As played, obvious fold.

Fold pre, don't donk this board into 5 players. Easy fold as played.

PRE - fold 9/10 times. Call once in a while, in spots like this, with so many weak players and loose action. But still - mostly fold.

FLOP - for God's sake, check. Check-raise or flat call a single bet. Fold to a bet-raise.

Flip this around and do the opposite:

Thanks all.

Sorry for wasting bandwidth on this - as I said in the title it’s horribly results oriented because obviously I folded, and equally obviously the turn was a seven.

Meh, the other two are so bad that the shove was made with J5 and he got called by J7…
