fold river ... everything else is fine

[VorShot]

Fold with a house?
Umm, no i don't fold a house there any day.

[Marshall28]

lolz .. oops ... u played it perfect ... didnt realize board paired on river

[VorShot]

What i'm worried about, did i give BB odds to draw to the flush?

[Marshall28]

u mean on the flop ... well it was 3.20 to call your bet .. and the pot was 7.60 ... u gave him a little over 2-1 ...he is well over 3-1 to hit his hand

I am playing this fast especially with an aggressor and call. There is 5.4 in the pot, 7.2 after you call, so you raised 2.2 into a 7.2 pot. I personally Pot it, so I would raise to $9 on the flop. Due to the stack sizes, this means you are pushing on the flop.

[VorShot]

Whoops! i did mean the flop.

[Marshall28]

lolz i cant add

[VorShot]

So i didn't give odds, and i should have shoved?

You gave 7.2:2.2 odds or 3.27:1 odds which is not enough outright odds, but youhave put about half your stack in now, so he can just about be sure if he hits the turn he can get your whole stack and will have implied odds to cover what he loses on the flop call. Pushing gives him ~1.8:1 odds when you are a 3:1 favorite to win the hand if he does have two diamonds.

Edit: Also, he is 2.16:1 to get the flush by the river, so calling your flop push would be an incorrect play on his part.

This looks good.

[gimmetheloot]

Orange, would you think a slightly larger raise (~5.5) would be better since it commits them both on any turn?

[VorShot]

Next time, pot size bet, and once i see that a pot size bet would have left me almost nothing behind, this is a clear push.

Thanks.

I raise to about 6-7 on flop and push turn even when the diamond falls.

yeah, a PSR would probably be best. makes good for turn shoving typically.
