[I]1) Don't post - wait for BB[/I]

I normally do; but this was a time-out situation (missed a call when multi-tabling) and I really didn't feel like waiting.

[I] 2) Don't buy in for half a stack - get the max so you can win the max! Short stack strategy does have its uses (less likely to be bluffed) but a medium stack is the worst of both worlds[/I]

Again, wasn't buying in, but otherwise agree.  And I'm just not the type of player who tops up after every losing hand... should I be? I think that's a sure way to hammer your bankroll on a bad night.

[I] 3) Puuuuuuuuuushhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TJ, 98, 77 or a set are all likely holdings. T7 goes in the muck most of the time, even in a limped pot. [B]It's not really the idiot end if one of your cards fills a gap[/B]. You did push or at least raise, didn't you?

[/I]I pushed. (BJ: Thanks for the technical clarification)  In fact, because I was filling the gap was how I explained the all the action: my straight was disguised.  But the truth explained it even better:

He flipped over T7 and I was drawing dead.

Thanks all. I was 80% sure I'd played this correctly; but I've had a torrid last 2 weeks and have started second-guessing some of my plays; but that's what you're all here for, right? ;)
