Re: If this wasn\'t in the blinds, I would have folded...should I anywa

I fold to the bet on the turn. I think your play is fine up to that point. You say that you felt like you were good until he called your all-in -- I think players need to be careful when they make plays under these circumstances. That is, in situations where you think, "If he calls me then I am behind", you really have to question why you are putting youself in that situation in the first place. It seems to me that, if that's the case, all your check-raise will accomplish is fold out worse hands.

Agreed...that may have been a bad way to think about it. I wasn't going to fold at this point, because I thought I was ahead. So, I could call, and then deal with the river...but my feeling was that if I just went all in, I would get flush draws to call as well...I'd get that extra bit, when I wouldn't be getting it if I waited till the river. Is this bad thinking? If I'm not going to fold...get the extra money from flush draws that might be playing aggressively here?
