[roo27]

this is a intresting hand as id of called with 10's but then id of pushed as soon as i see the flop probably pushing the jq and 77 out of the pot so not intialy shour this was a good fold by you as i think with this play youd of won this hand

your quite right what you say here roo but i should have mentioned that the table was quite aggressive and im sure i would have had a call if i had pushed with the tens, thats why i just flat called before the flop. still, another day i might have done exactly what you say.

I would not have folded

I take risks

and sometimes they pay off

[naturalmn]

Tx for the tips

[doods]

Would've been in to the river, then folded to the huge bets

I'm with you on this....I love 10's. They usually pay out for me unless it's 10 6. That's my birthday and the most unlucky hold cards for me.

As far as this hand goes, I would have folded on the turn.
