I have thought it over and over and i dont think in hindsight i would change the way i played this hand, what do you think?
last night at Sydney casino playing 10/20
me and one other on the river ,i hold an ace high flush with no chances of straight flush on the board,i go all in $280.00.Opponent calls and shows two 4s in the hole with two 4s on the flop.Quad 4s beat ace high flush ,unbelievable.Im sure i played this right,what do you think?

to me, there is absolutely no way to represent quad anything because we see it so little, if i see 2 of anything on the flop and someonebetting into me big, im always going to assume they caught trips

yeah pretty tough to put someone on quads, but i wouldn't mind seeing exactly how this one went down in detail anyway.

You have to be wary of a full house and slow down any time the board pairs. I don't know how much was in the pot before your $280 bet, but if you did overbet the pot, then the only hands that would call you were ones that had you beaten. In that case, you made a bad play.

let me get this straight. .. did you see the board paired or just completely missed it? I know after playing marathon sessions I can misread the board and have mucked winners.
However, if you did see the board was paired and he moved in on you and you called with a flush, then that is a Hold'em 101.
Please give more details on the hand played, like how deep your stcks were, how loose this guy was, what was your image, etc. But for you to be playing 10/20 NL and making a mistake like that makes me believe you were dead tired or BS'ing your story.

I agree i never should have moved all in with a pair on the board,this guy had been at the table 2 hrs and raised every hand pre flop ,he was a true maniac .I had been portraying a tight aggressive game but i did make a big mistake this hand.I am not dissapointed as i have learned from it ,although it was tough for me to write an ace high flush off against what i read as a player who was a amateur maniac.

Never fall in love with your cards.
The worst bad beat I had this weekend -- $4-$8 holdem, I'm in early position and flop a 10 high club flush. I check it to see if anyone else bets the flush. Nobody bets it, so I bet the turn (a blank). Sure enough, on the river another club comes. I checked and someone in late position bet. I called, he had the jack. If it was no-limit I probably would have dumped the hand.
