Flop: ($13.50) 7:spade:, 8:heart:, 9:diamond: [color:#0000FF](3 players)[/color]
MP1 checks, [color:#CC3333]Hero bets $6[/color], [color:#CC3333]MP1 raises to $12[/color], [color:#CC3333]Hero raises to $26[/color], [color:#CC3333]MP1 raises to all in $55[/color]

Not sure if the converter is working right b/c this didn't look right in the preview window so bear with me. On the flop he check min raises me (I know Iceman, beware the min raise). Bells did go off in my head at this point but there is no way I'm laying down to a min raise and flat calling and facing a bet on the turn was not an appealing option so I figured I had to raise to define my opponents hand, I thought if he comes back over the top I can get away from it. Problem was once he came back over the top it's $30 more to me and a $90 pot. Can you really get away from this at this point?? Even though I knew I was likely beat the pot is laying 3-1 and he could make this play with 10's-K's. Is there a better way to play this?? This one really has me thinking. Results to follow

Greg... chill out dude... it takes a while for us to start replying... Besides the fact that trying to read this post is like translating Chinese Calculus...

Anyways, hard to see him raising and calling another raise w/ J10 PF... So, I think it's at least fairly safe to assume he doesn't have the straight YET... His check-raise could be trips on this pretty scary board straight wise... I would've bet closer to the pot on the flop, around $12-$15... And, if he would've minraised that, after listening to Ice preach it a million times, I probably would've folded to the minraise... Either that, or pushed allin and prayed he didn't hit his trips...

I think if you are going to call his all-in anyways, you might as well have pushed all-in after his first reraise, but really, I think you should have slowed down and called to see the turn, if the next card is a 6 or 10, then you might really want to think about folding, since you are probably beaten.
