I would usually fold this on the turn, but it looked like a weak bet to me.

Also, I meant to just go all in.

How is my line?

Your behind on the turn, he may have a flush at this point so you have 10 clean outs. I just call here.

Meh, I would just call the turn I think. Turn c/r is good if you think you have decent FE, but I doubt he folds a Q here. I would call the turn w. good odds and probably bet the river if I improve.

i seen a couple people post hands in these forums where they have a double gutshot and semi bluff it ....

what people who semi bluff this hand dont understand is that a double gutshot is strong for its deceptive purposes when you do make it.

i dont think the flop c-bet is a good one given the QJc on the flop ... id probably have check folded this hand since a10 is so weak .... and oop its even worse.

i do realize you picked up a nut flush draw on the turn but heres the thing ... his mini re-raise on the turn suggests serious strength. so heres my argument .. if his hand rates to be real strong ... and you have a huge draw to a hand which will rate to be best if you make it ... take the great odds hes giving you and see if you make your hand ... and if you do ... move it in.

you really just dont have any fold equity against his mini reraise and the pot is still small so u should take the cheap river he is offering you.

i think c/r is terrible.
