The player to my left, #10, calls $2, as do players #1, #6, and #7. Player #8 calls the big blind for $1. I check, of course.

Player #8, the small blind, checks. The action is on me. I have a gutshot straight draw, and I need a five to fill it. I can't count the five of diamonds as a solid out since it could make someone a flush. Lots of people will call a single bet with two suited cards when playing low-limit. I'm about ready to throw this hand in. This is an easy check.

Player, #10, to my left, bets $2. Players #1, #6, and #7 call. Player #8 folds. There are now five players (counting myself) and $20 in the pot.
