NL50 Is repping the flush here terrible?

[PoliticalRefugee]

Well I want this over on the flop but villain was having none of it.

Now I'm unsure about how to play the turn, should I check or bet? By checking I showed weakness and that I was scared of the club so I basically turned my hand face up to him. I called on a whim and when the last club came I decided to rep the flush.

Is this crap?

hmmmmm, i think i like it. although i dont think you should have shown villains action on river.

what do you think he has? I put him on JT or QT here but before the river it is hard to tell if he has a club or not. Since he folded, i'm assuming he did not have a club.

What are you representing?

I think you repped AJ or KJ with the ace/king of clubs.

I would have bet the turn as well most of the time. If he puts in a big raise, I fold usually. As far as the pot sized bet without a club-I wouldn't...very dangerous. I would have bet something like 5 if I was to try this(because I think that's usually just as good as betting 10. Although, you just have to win the pot on the river 50% of the time with that 10 dollar bet....so maybe it's not so bad.

Say we bet the turn and he calls, then is the river a fold?
