$25nl straight on the turn

[kabouter]

So I hit my straight on the turn , wasn't that afraid of a AK beating my straight, since both guys still with me would have raised with those hands. I was afraid of a flush though, that's why I took the initiative to bet here. How did I play this hand? I personally didn't really liked my miniraise here but it was more too the other guys still in the game to make it -ev for them to call if they are chasing a flush. Not so against the villain betting.

I'd raise turn to around $5 then just push river, it's likely someones lurking with a J and will pay you off.

I would have raised a bit more on the flop. One caller would be plenty to see the river with.

Your river bet is perhaps a bit small given that there are two other players still in the hand one of whom at least should call. By the time it comes back to you on the river I'd guess you're behind (!) but for with roughly 20% pot odds I think you have to call.

minraise, boo

The river bet was more a valuebet, if I would have bet the pot I probably scared someone away. The same with reraising the turn big.
UTG had JQo though so I lost anyways /images/graemlins/smile.gif
