Nut Flush misses - Bad Bluff?

Daniel Magix · #1 10-10-2006, 02:37 PM

Live home tourney.
7 players.
t3500 starting stack.

First Level - blinds are t25/25
All stacks are relatively even.

Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero raises to t75
Two callers
BB raises to t150
Heros calls, and the other two call as well.

Flop 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players, t600)
BB checks, Hero checks, two more checks

Turn T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4 players, t600)
BB bets t200, Hero raises to t500, two folds, BB calls (hesitantly)

River 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players, t1600)
BB checks, Hero bets t800, BB takes a full minute...then calls

Did I misplay this on every street and make an obvious missed flush bluff?

Why did you raise the turn???

i think the raise turn/bet river line is fine, although if you're going to raise maybe make it a little more on the turn.

also, dont post results.

What's with turn raise? It's horrid. You have A high, 1 card left to hit your flush (which, is gonna be quite hard to pay off well) and BB isn't likely to fold for t300 more. River bet isn't awful if BB was hesitant to just call turn. But turn raise sucks, just call it.

ok, let's assume he raised to 700, then why is the raise bad?

It didn't accomplish anything, but I thought BB could have had AK, given his raise PF and check when the flop had all low cards. Then I thought he was just making a play at the pot when the Turn came up. I felt confident that the other two limpers couldn't call a raise by me, so if I was right about BB just taking a stab at the pot with AK, then my raise would have succeeded in taking the pot down on the Turn.

I was wrong about him having AK.

I am not justifying my play there, it could have been (and apparently was) absolutely awful. I am just explaining my thought process during it.
