25NL - Hero makes nut straight on turn - Flushy board - bet size?
 

I just screwed this hand up big time, by under-betting the turn. Let's just say I had the nuts on the turn and ended up doubling Villain up on the river.

How much to we turn bet here, and why?
Discuss.

[Yeah I called under the gun with KQs. This will be sacreligious to some of you, and is not my usual play. It was my last hand and I just wanted a cheap flop, the table was pretty passive. I got the cheap flop. Lets not focus on this in this thread].

I'd go for a pot-size raise (at least half-pot size raise), giving him a 2:1 pot odds to call if he's drawing to a flush.

Of course, if he has either Kh or Kc he will most likely call regardless your raise...

Preflop is ugly. Flop is ugly because, serious reverse implied odds.

passive table makes it an easy raise.

Whats your reasoning for check/calling the flop though as opposed to leading?

Preflop is awful and your justification is worse. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Fold the flop, wtf are you doing.

Now bet like 2.4
