well played. i doubt he would check a straight on the turn, but the check is still right. hes probably folding any big river bet so id say either half pot or pot it for a seeming overbet. good position plo though.

Yeah only better hands call a river bet.

Yeah only better hands call a river bet.

That's a pity. We have the nuts.I like how it was played, and I bet $10-12 on the river.

lol ok so we have the flush. I thought we had the bottom straight.I pot river. Noone can resist a donkish pot size bet on river. He will snap call.

Hmm. Maybe I've just been running bad lately (ok there's no maybe about it), but I've tried potting the river sometimes in these situations and I never get paid. Ever.
