should i have bet the river? (2nd nut flush)

[stonecrow 0]

I won this hand...I know the call on the flop is pretty sketchy so need to tell me that. I was just feeling "frisky" for this one due to jokes with Blink20 and I about K9 being one of his favorite hands and how he's burnt me with it a few times in this same situation. 8) The question here is should I bet the river rather hard?I only checked because I figured the NUT flush was out there and EVERYONE calling the 5$ flop made me think there was a nut flush draw chasing...Thoughts? FYI - I did take it down still...one had JA other J5 osPokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) converterButton ($78.45)SB ($51.55)BB ($65.55)Hero ($134.40)MP ($172.85)CO ($23.05)Preflop: Hero is UTG with [Kc], [9c].

fold preflop, and you hit your hand, bet it

I realize the entire hand is craplar pre-flop. Let us not focus on that..I'm simply curious if u guys would bet the river hard. The mass call of 5$ on the after the flop implies many drawers inc. nut flush.on the turn I did have the odds to call. I think I should've thrown at least 10$ bet on the river though now looking at it.

I would have folded probably on the turn, but he was not betting like he had the flush draw, the others calling OTOH might have been. If I had made it to the River I probably play it same as you did. Question I have have is what do you do if he pushes all-in on the River?If the answer is call, then maybe you should bet out.

rasie the flop

I agree with Eddie, I raise the Flop. But with a stack liek he has at a low stakes table he is probably doing a lot of pushing, hard to tell if it changes anything.

couple extra things1) If you figured the nut-flush draw was out there, why did you even call down2) you said two contracdicting things, one being you won the pot and you said someone had J5J5 woulda been a boat, and you wouldnt of won

1) Considering the stacks the play quality of the players...yes, I mean ultimate fish-ness..calling down on bottom pair styles... I figured it was worth the it.2) My bad..It was J big rag something...
