I can't decide whether I shouldn't have raised on the river or I just got unlucky.

    Hi subb I think I played on a 10-seater last night with you. In this hand you're just plain unlucky, the guy has flopped a full house, you hitting the 5 on turn is a very bad card as it gives you the best straight. Even I would find it hard to get away from this so don't worry it is just bad luck.

    i dont like the UTG open limp with 76o... i would fold. I would bet more on the flop if i wanted to try and steal this as a semi bluff with the gutshot, when you make your hand on the turn i think you should bet a little bit more to build the pot (because most of the time you have the best hand) and when he raises you, reraise back! hes itching to get his money into the pot and tbh you dont have enough back to fold... as played the river is standard.

    Don't like the limp UTG with 76 off
    Think the bet on the flop could be bigger
    Hate the call on the turn with two hearts on the board
    And after all that...
    yes it probably is a bad beat

    Oh and about raising the river
    I think that if your'e calling the turn you must be a bit wary of a boat, so I don't see you would want to raise the river

    Not a bad beat cos he was ahead all the way. Just unfortunate to run into a flopped house.

    I know the UTG limp was bad, but I have a soft spot for those low connectors lol
