Straight flush draw too aggressive?

[martybonus]

welceom to the forums.

and good on you for posting a good 'learning' hand.

flop and PF play are fine.

turn play is catastrophically wrong. maybe i'm missing something, but this looks diabolical to me.

the card that completes your nut flush is 4.2:1 against coming in. basic pot odds dictate that you should only be calling or betting such that you're getting better than 4.2:1 for your wager.

the way you played the turn resulted in you contributing about 25% of the pot (ie about 4BB of a 16BB pot). You're only winning it 20% of the time. This is an error.

also, you can't cant on 3 players coming along for the ride like this. usually aggressive betting knocks players out. this means you pay more like 40% of the pot, making it an even worse mistake if your flush draw only comes through 20% of the time.

so good job flop and PF, but please please please don't play your flush draws like this on the turn in the future. see my post (pg 3 of the forums i think) or any of numerous other better sources if you want more detail.

but for your own sake, don't ever do this again.
