    I had already taken a big pot off of aloha fishin for a flush. With the nuts on the turn, i wanted to protect it and at least take down a decent sized pot. Should I have just flat called the bet to bring glaw into the hand more? Thoughts?

    I have no reads on any players. But id prob say glaw was drawing with something like KQ or he had second pair decent kicker, maybe Q10, which he thought was beat. I doubt he would have called aloha's push, regardless or whether you raised it afterwards. Personally i prefer to just call there over the long run, and if they have a strong drawing hand of TPGK you might get a call and be able to suck out a little bit more money on river.
