What do I do? Please don't focus on the pre-flop call.

Check to him? Then....
Call a push?
Call a small bet?
Check/Fold?

Lead into him? If so...
How much?


Would you have folded on the turn raise?

I would have pushed on turn.

push the river.

if he has A high flush or full house, so be it.

if he moves all-in on river do u honestly fold ? I kinda dout it, so push yourself.

Board paired on turn worries me more then then the A hi flush possibility. Bet the river $10-$12 -1/2 pot actually wait ,that leaves you nothing left practically anyway, yeah push on river, if you cautious you could check/call .

U gotta push.
I expect u got this won. If not then its too bad. Sometimes u gotta take a chance.

I think you're beat. i think he has the boat.

i would check/call the river

I probably would have pushed on the Turn...then you don't get into the trouble with the boat.

But even so, there's no way I'd lay this hand down. Play it hard on the river, and if you get beat, you get beat.

flat-call turn bet bad idea ... pot commits you for any bet on the river ... technically you still have 2 outs, so eh what the hell?

consider check-raising the flop ... you've got a huge drawing hand and you may want to build a nice pot

Didn't want to check the flop. I was 2nd last to act and I didn't want it to check around.



I flat called the turn somewhat expecting to be all in on the river provided the board didn't pair again.


As it happened, the river brought a rag and I pushed. He folded.
