BTN: $113.85
SB: $118.40
Hero (BB): $105
UTG: $100
UTG+1: $18.55
MP: $24.45
CO: $145.20

Pre-Flop: dealt to Hero (BB)
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $1, MP folds, CO calls $1, 2 folds, Hero checks

Flop: ($3.50) (3 Players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, CO bets $3.50, Hero calls $3.50, UTG+1 calls $3.50 (I could lead, but I chose to check-call multi-way and try to get more players involved to give me better odds to draw. Since it's a deuce that's paired on the board, it's not too likely anyone has it and will then check-raise the CO with me in the middle. Downside is I only have the Q-high draw...I hope nobody has As3s!!)

Turn: ($14) (3 Players)
Hero bets $10, UTG+1 raises to $14.05 and is All-In, CO folds, Hero calls $4.05 (Gold. Spades come through every time. I lead, because even though it's completely obvious what I have, I find that this doesn't deter most NL100 prayers from carring me down. Arso UTG+1 is short, so I want to be sure and get his money in there.)

River: ($42.10) (2 Players - 1 is All-In)


Results: $42.10 Pot ($2.10 Rake)
Hero showed (a flush, King high) and WON $40 (+$21.45 NET)
UTG+1 showed (two pair, Aces and Twos) and LOST (-$18.55 NET)

ROR!!! Two spades are better than one!! Ship it!!
