NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)
Button ($271.40) Hero ($91.40) BB ($118.85) UTG ($179.90) MP ($153.65) Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

No reads on villain, I'm thinkin turn bet was too little but wondering if anyone plays the hand differently at all. |

Re: NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
it's good, i often bet turn a little bigger
river is fine, i sometimes push river, sometimes bet small like you did, and sometimes $45 or $50 his river play is weird, and you may be beat by a slowplayed bigger flush, but not often enough to warrant anything but an insta-call |

Re: NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
I bet more on the turn, more on the river. You might try betting less to induce a raise from some players. But in general, I want to bet more so I can bet more on the river.

Re: NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
Turn bet I was thinking I dont want to give away my hand too quickly, so a small raise may cause him to think I have two pair/top pair/set and raise me.

Your bet is 1/2 pot and is a perfect sized blocking bet. You might get a raise out of some very aggressive players, but most will just call. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm thinking that a bigger turn bet here is reasonable because you have made it seem as if you are trying to protect your hand on the flop by 3-betting out of position. This 3-bet really hides the flush draw here since your OOP. That way it's perfectly fine to lead out on the turn for 20-30 dollars and then push the rest in on the river, giving him better odds to call. |

You got all your money in the pot. You probably have the best hand. BB is playing what two clubs and calls your raise on the flop? I guess KcQc is possible. If you felt he might be on this hand you should have put him on the wrong pot odds to call your flop raise.

Re: NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
as was said above, get more in on the turn. your flush draw it not obvious. you want to get a lot of value out of this hand.
you still got it in so its all good [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
I bet more on the turn, I think often a smaller bet looks more suspicious especially after flop action, and they can always rationalise your larger bet meaning you're scared of seeing a 4th club (which, to some extent, you are anyway).

Re: NL100: Turned flush, anyone play it differently?
I bet about 20 on the turn and shove the river. I want the river bet to be a fair bit less than a PSB to make it easier for him to call. That means making a little bit bigger bet on the turn.
