    It recently got down to 24 people from 2500+ and i got moved to this new table with reads on only a few of these people, the villian not included.

    I feel relatively comfortable with 20BB since it recently changed to 2500-5k blinds.

    Lambert guy is very LAG and has been yo-yoing alllll day. i sat with him for over 2 hours, and hes easily trapped. Never sat with Solomon (villian)

    The oh crap comes from the Turn club. i KNOW im good on the flop and lamberts 10k doesnt bother me at all, but solomon flatt calling makes me think club draw or Paint Cards.

    SHould i have fired the shell on the turn or just checked??

    Him flatting calling, with position, a 35k bet into 49K pot padding padding it to 119K after the flop really made me think flush.

    Also, should i have checked the river instead? To me, a check by me with only 43K behind and the pot of 119K is like conceding the pot after how ive gone after the pot to start.

    Instead of shoving my last 43k, should i have checked and folded to his bet and sat with less than 9 BB and the button coming or is this a spot to go with it? That pot of 205K would have put me 6th/24 and priming me for a FT run...

    comments?

    raise the flop. bottom 2 pair on a draw heavy board like that isnt something to be slowplaying.

    Raise the flop. If he returns with a shove which he probably won't with two people already in the hand, then you are in a tough spot. The spot you were in was the spot that you put yourself in.
