    do not have much info on the villain..he was moved to our table recently and has been in every pot but one so far 4 out of 5

    thoughts on my play? do i check turn? my bet sizing, how bad or good? what do i do on river and what can i beat? just an overview of how i played this would be great..i guess folding pre would be boarderline bad here but maybe im wrong..thx

    just give up on the turn if you want to bet the flop.

    Id just like to say that I really dont like your turn bet cuz i dont see u getting 2 streets of value here from hands you beat. Plus, since the flush and straight draw just hit, u turned top pair into a bluff on the turn.

    Check raise shove on flop? I like that play given your stack. If it goes check check, bet turn. Given your flop bet, I say shove or chk/fold turn.
