Pre-flop:

Mr C. folds. Mr D. folds. Mr E. folds.
teknipper raises to $21. Mr A. calls. Mr B.
folds.

I raised on button since it was checked to me. I was hoping to steal the blinds.

Flop (board: 2h 5d Qd):

Mr A. checks. teknipper bets $48. Mr A.
raises to $192. teknipper goes all-in for $551.60.
Mr A. goes all-in for $510.05. teknipper is
returned $41.55 (uncalled).

Pretty good looking flop for me. I only have middle set, but I have the Q as well. I am pretty sure that Mr A. would have led out on me. I put him on bottom set with maybe a straight/flush draw. Did I mention that I was stuck for the day and felt like gambling?


Turn (board: 2h 5d Qd 9h):

(no action in this round)

OH $h!t. I hope he didn't have bottom set.
