10 Seater - Piston and Port on sitout - 8 active players I'm on SB I am dealt 32o - nothing would persuade me to put money into the pot (except everyone folding to me and taking the blinds from the sitout) PreFlop Lynn (Rednutt) UTG with AQs raises to 3xBB (60) next 2 players fold Heniek calls Everyone else folds Flop Ts 3d Qd Lynn hits top pair, and first to act puts a nice bet in of 2/3 of the pot Heniek folds Lynn (rednutt) takes the pot down of 150 and shows her cards. Two nice bets from Rednutt here IMO. I wouldn't have shown my cards (but it's hard to criticise that in a friendly forum game)

GAF, there is probably one situation where you might think of putting money in the pot here, if there are several limpers (>3) and no raise. Couple of reasons I say this, first of all you're small blind, so with alot of limpers youll be getting very high pot odds on the money you're putting in, in a situation like that you can play cards like that from time to time, although don't get me wrong I wouldn't make a habit of doing it all the time :) Also you have a hand that if it hits big on the flop (Straight or trips) is very easily disguised and potentially can make a decent amount of money, but it is also very easy to get out of the hand even if you hit a pair (as would have happened in this hand). But you did the right thing in your situation, no chance you could see a raise pre flop.
