Prima Poker skin
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $1/$2
7 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (7 players) Hero is BB with 5 of Diamonds 3 of Spades
UTG folds, UTG+1 raises, 4 folds, Hero calls.

I seem to be on a run of getting this hand and I'd hardly played it at all. Villain seemed something of a donk. I was feeling frisky. What the hell.

Flop: Ace of Clubs King of Hearts 5 of Clubs (4.5SB, 2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks.

Hmm (as Primitive might say) - I've connected, after a fashion but you gotta think that's a pretty damn average flop against an EP raiser. Of course I still have the double gutshot straight draw. Keeping draws like this in mind is the key to successful 53o play, kids...

Turn: 4 of Hearts (2.25BB, 2 players)
Hero bets, UTG+1 calls.

Very Happy

Well one half of the double gutshot is in, and I think villain probably would have bet that flop if he'd had a piece of it. Let's take a shot at it out of pure recklessness...

River: Queen of Diamonds (4.25BB, 2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks.

That river card spells the end, shurely. Strange he didn't bet it though...


Results:
Final pot: 4.25BB
Hero shows 5d 3s
UTG+1 mucks
Hero wins 4.25BB

Shocked Very Happy

We'll never know what he had (darn those Prima HHs Evil or Very Mad). To say I was surprised to win this hand is something of an understatement.
