    Now I didnt play this hand perfect by any means,Probably shouldnt even have called preflop,but I do like to mix it up when playing turbos rather than get blinded down.
    Can someone tell me wtf is this guy's thought process?? Is this some advanced play that I dont know about..?????? I guess had I just called postflop,I could've bet him out when the turn gave me a flush draw as well.
    Also do any of you call preflop here?? Pot odds were over 2-1 although I was out of position.

    I don't mind the preflop call here. The continuation bet does look weak, but so is the person you are playing here. I'd probably fold unless I hit a flush draw on that flop to do with the straight draws.

    As for his all in - it's clear he doesn't know how to play postflop and just goes all in to make up for his lack of skill.
