u are now beat. Check-fold I guess.

meh, I guess you beat A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] but there are too many more hands that beat you than you beat.

I check-call here. 75 and 97 will probably valuebet if checked to.

He can also have a lone A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and bluff the river, or even have AA which planned to limp-reraise preflop.

Also, there are only 56 better flushes. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I usually try to get it all in on the flop. Too many horrible turn cards for either you or your opponent, and no one ever believes you flopped a flush. You'll get called by 88, 44, TT (unlikely given limped pot), T8, and probably A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T. Add in 5% of the time he limped an overpair with a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] as well.

My guess at hand range.
-set (88,44) he cant let go of. Board pairs on river, you are beat
-slow played A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img],A (x). A decent player doesnt call your turn check raise but, no reads.
-A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T (x) you are ahead and might get some value from his trips. Again, he probably shouldn't have called your check raise.
-higher flush, most likely holding IMHO. No A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] flush or he would have pushed turn.

bottom line: you are behind most of his range. He has approx. $100 behind on the river so he is felting any kind of hand and a blocking bet is out. I c/f river. I dont think he bets river with anything you can call.

i checked and he checked behind with K(h)10x i felt like i shouldve pushed river cause he only had 95 left.. but i too thought i had to be beat

Well you're not always beat. I think you're behind 50% of his calling range which makes betting wrong.
