This time it was the opponent that had it.
I raised a minraiser with TT to and got two callers (including the original raiser).
Flop 89T all diamonds.
The original raiser made a bet of just 2.50 into the pot. A very small bet and one that made me very suspicious. It wasn't protecting him against any draws.
Thinking about it this play makes some sense for Pocket Jacks. Any hand with the Ace of diamonds including pocket Aces (although not reraised) and a made flush (most likely the nut flush). Possibly a lower set hoping to get the opportunit
I chose to just call probably a mistake given my reads but I would have been happy to fold (or stick around if given the implied odds) if a diamond fell. The 8 hitting on the turn was enough to give me the third nuts and I really couldn't put him on a straight flush or quads so got it in.
Even the third guy in the hand remarked 'What a cooler'. I then sat out.
I played on at the other table but wished I hadn't as my decision making suffered.

Week 17 - April 28-May 5
Lamma Poker Exchange 670 (-248)
Deadly Weekly -85 Total +959
Moocher Weekly -40 Total +180
Phillberto Weekly -98 Total +157
Lamma_Jim Weekly +18 Total -168
Bigshot Bog Weekly -39 Total -458
Looking like a grim week all round. Deadly has a second losing week. Moocher jumps a spot into second place despite registering a losing week. I manage to lose again. I managed to hit top set on a mono flop on a 3 way reraised pot preflop. I then filled up on the turn. The money all went in for me to discover that I was behind to a flopped straight flush.
Having transferred $500 to Bigshot I'm now under $100 on Stars and working on building my bankroll to enable me to two table 50NL again. And running the very real likelihood of busting out once again.
LammaJim looks like he is heading further away from the prospect of busting however and is already on the way to another winning week again I hear. Bigshot has a losing week but is at least avoiding the occasional massive slip that has eaten his roll in previous months.
Lets put up a few winning peformances this week Lamma people.
