I'm MattHasAces, did I play it right, and should I have called on the turn?

You should not have called the turn and against opponents at real money tables you probably should not have bet the river either.

On the river, you have the third nuts, but it's a very obvious third nuts and you will (on real money tables) not that often be looked up by a worse hand. You might, however, be checkraised and be forced to give up. This is why checking behind in this particular situation is preferable.

Thanks for your help, and the link.

And really, in hindsight, my hand is much worse than it looked at the time. Bottom end of a low straight, surprised I bet that. Thanks again.

i would have called cause it was play chips, if it was a acutall tourney i proabably would have folded, just cause the gut shot is so hard to hit and for the risk with that many callers, but thats just me

why play 1/2 play money stakes?
