    On the turn, imo theres only one hand where he can flat, and only because hes that certain weak kind of shite.

    Thats why i pushed the river.

    Is any1 checking the river or just betting differently on any street?

    Thanks

    I thnk if it had been the heart on the river all in would have been good as it was unlikely he would of been on the back door

    I feel bet on turn was good, didnt give him odds to draw bt then it is a 3.30 rebuy and its full of donks!!

    On the river the best play proably would of been to stopper bet, if you checked no doubt he would have bet then you may have called, its dependant realy on the bet size etc etc

    A stopper bet , you could lose how much you want 2, bt also if he raises, and its a 3.30 rebuy so its unlikely hes playing you, insta fold

    Jst my thoughts, nice post

    Played well until the river. I think you should have made two choices, check call or made a blocking bet, with the <span>blocking bet being your optimal choice</span>. I dont like the shove on the river at all, theres plenty of donks that will call pot sized bets on every street till they catch their flush in these and in this case ur giving him max value if he did hit.
