I wasnt sure what to make of his $1 bets. I assumed they were blocking bets. When the river hits, should I just call his raise? Was I wrong to re-raise? I just thought he played the hand very weird, and I wasnt sure what to put him on...

Your turn raise, is too small, IMO. At that point though, I prob just call to hit my flush cheaply. I stick it on this river, as well, as played.

A good way to deal with these bets, btw, is to just pretend they didn't actually happen, and act accordingly (not forgetting the info they provide, though). That's why I think your turn raise is too small. Probably your river raise, as well.

I like the PF and the flop raise.

I'm not sure, but i think it's better to flat call the turn or raise it to $10 rather than raising to $6, though i'd like people's opinions on that.

Yes. Definitely. Does anybody just call his river 3 bet? Cuz I think I do..

I think its a pretty big mistake to not push against a drooler here even with the 3 card straight flush. Ive seen retards play a bare Q like this.

lol @ drooler

I agree. I think being afraid of the Nut flush and SF combo's is kind of weak. If your opponent is a rock, I guess you could argue just calling.
