This is mostly a reverse bad beat:brag post (thats why I'm posting it in this thread) but since I am so green at NL I am sure I played it wrong and wouldn't mind a bit if somebody told me the right way to play it.
At the time, on the flop I could only remember that a raise should be about 3X the bet but later I got to thinking that might just be preflop and I could've over played this flop and folded everybody [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
I know the check raise on the turn looks dangerous but I figured if he checked it thru I would push the river. ????
Anywayright or wrong it was fun to win that many BB in one hand [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
