    Wish me luck, I am going to enter the $50 ($50k gtd) on stars tonite. I have been on a bit of a run lately and thought I would take the shot. $12/180's are money.

    Did I miss a bet on the river? Is the optimal play to raise on the flop?

    Thanks in advance for the advice.

    The last hand Im definatly raising that flop. Its a draw heavy board and a weaksauce bet. If you think your good on the turn then you have to lead the river too obv. IMO.. Dont play scared just because its a fiddy buy in..

    Would the prudent move be to limp fold to his eventual raise with 10's? Is raising in this position with 5's +EV?

    cooooooooooooooooooooooooler, but i still cont bet flop 3 ways.

    No way ur getting away from that hand lol.

    as far as raising with 55 in lp ur fine if ur reads are that he is weak postflop.

    Hell, once the antes kick in if i see somebody limp ill raise Q5o if they play weak postflop. Easy $$
