  2. I think you shoulda raised the flop and then tried to get it in on the turn. gotta make him pay to hit his bigger flush or fill up. hes not gonna pay you shit on the river if he misses
  3. sigh
     
  4. lol well you got all his money so i guess u played it fine..........
  5. Well, with his hand here, you were getting his money regardless (as long as you dodge a heart at least).

    I don't mind the call on the flop. Leaves him open to bet the turn. Raising the turn seems right, since it looks like he has a heart in hand to bet the flop and the turn. You don't want him to get there (or a heart to hit and you have to fold to a huge bet).

    My question here is, say you check the turn, and the river is the 4h, and he bets 70, what are you doing? Are you itching to call, when your reads should scream heart?
