Final Pot: 352$

The guy is steaming because of losing a big pot to me when he made a misread. He flopped a set and the river brought a four flush and he called all his money after my c/r b b. I made the nuts on the turn obviously. So I think that against a guy who is steaming, b/f turn might be a good line to assure that he doesn't make a ridicolous bluff. After I reraised preflop, I didn't think there was any chance he would float me on ace high board, but against a steaming guy, who knows. Jack was a scare card obviously, and without a jack coming on the turn, I would probably call him. But what if I bet the turn and he just calls? What do I do on the river?

This hand also shows the disadvatage of reraising AT preflop in that spot.
