No real read on SB. Comments on all streets welcome. Particularly interested in what types of hands we put SB on here.

He's betting the scare card that hit the river.
I call.

he's got it a decent amount of the time, but i still think it's a call. also, how did you overplay top pair?

I'm thinking that the OP is putting the villain here on having top
pair that HE overplayed.
I'm HOPING that the "Hero" realizes he has the straight.

I flat call here realizing that either I :
a ) Chop often
b ) Lose to a flush sometimes

thus not raising.

c) pick off a bluff some times

ok.. that makes sense to me, but i don't think villian overplayed top pair. (maybe he had the krablar).

To scott and others, I *was* referencing me overplaying top pair, but that's just because I was sleepy when I posted the hand. When I was playing it I knew I had the straight.

Note to self: Pay more attention when posting your hands and choosing your titles.

push the turn

Gotta call there. I agree, Id push the turn but thats just me. You played it well.

It's one of those spots where you heave a sigh and make the call. You played it good. I dunno that I push the turn, but an overbet is certainly a good play, so $15-20 rather than $12. Might look like you're trying to buy the pot. Villian prob had a pair and straight draw like you, possibly pair and flush draw as well. Can anyone see AcQc being played this way?

I think he's got the flush, but you've gotta suck it up and call.

If he check/call the flop and turn, he was probably on the flush draw and I'd put him all in on the turn.

so you get called when your beat or chop?

Im guessing you say this only because of the level of play.

I agree. Pushing is terrible. Ouch, ouch, just terrible.

Easy Call here w/ the straight, not saying we win but its an easy call.

I call, expecting to chop. If he has the flush, be glad he's only got $15 off you.
If I am the villain (and I have the flush or AQ), I think the best move is to just push the river. Hero is unlikely to have the flush and will have a hard time folding the Q.

AQ or QT of clubs, the villain has (unlikely to have a set of T's or 9's here). Lost you are, but call, you must.
