Meh, I don't really like how I play this. Call or fold river? How often am I ahead here?
Sat down about 30 hands ago, no real reads on anyone in the hand.

you're considering folding a flush?? Push every time. Also, raise turn you're just giving a free card and would have to shut down if that was a heart. Raise to around $2

Really? Even with villain2 (button) min-raising the third heart turn? I don't know, I think I should have led out turn for roughly 3/4 pot, and dump if raised.

folding a flush here is a bit like folding a small set (pair in hand) on a no flush, unlikely straight board. Because you are afraid of a higher set. You just don't do it.

remember this is 10NL he could have alot of hands. Slow playing a set/AJ is v. possible

Yeah, I understand what you're saying.

I dunno though, something about villain's line was sending warning bells that made me very nervous.

But I decided to call, mainly for the reasons you have stated, but also cause I am a station.

Anyway, villain had the nuts. Maybe I'm being results oriented? Oh well, I made the money back in about 50 hands so it's all good i guess. Thanks for your input.

yeah I know the feeling I guessed he had a higher flush just because you posted it. You'll do it to someone else sooner or later. One of the last 10NL hand I played I had a lower set and lost a buy-in. There really is nothing you can do. Just take comfort in the fact that you played it well.

You're being results oriented...the other 90% of the time facing this line, your villain with have a set or 2 pair or something.

Also, I don't like your turn play. By just calling, you're giving odds for a someone with a naked heart to suck out on you. Lead out, check-raise, whatever.

Lead turn. As played re-raise turn to 3. Lead river, shove as played.
