NL100 - rivered flush
 

How much do you raise here against semi-unknown (sat ~2 orbits, hasn't done anything noteworthy)? Weak pair hands will fold to any raise and 2pair/straights will probably call a larger raise ..... what would be optimal? I just felt immediately after clicking raise that I should have made it a bit more.. thoughts?

Your flop raise is weak sauce.

Raise the river to 35-38 and he's calling with any king.

Are you referring to #1 or #2? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Seriously though, are you referring to the raise or the raise size?

*If* you are going to raise, make it a good one. Whether the raise itself is good or not is a seperate issue.

Yes. Like Nielio said around $35. He might just have a pair and a queen in which case you probably won't get a call anyway, except for KQ.
