UTG is all-in t1760, Hero? [/ QUOTE ] calls Your flop bet (his possible thinking: you C-bet the flop) He min-bet on the turn and you just called (his thinking: you probably don't have a Q) The river is another Q and he pushes (his thinking: since he didn't raise my stupid turn min-bet on the turn he probably doesn't have a Q....or....I have trip Qs so I will try to get called) |

I don't know if 77-88 play the turn this way and he didn't limp/call with Q7,Q8,Q5 preflop. AQ raises the flop (I think). I call expecting to see KQ-QTs.

Call. That's an odd way to play a set of 7's or 8's, though plausible. More likely, he has QK or maybe a smaller flush formed from a straight draw (9T of spades?). Regardless, that bet screams to me, "CONFIDENCE! YOU BETTER NOT CALL!" With a boat, he sprung to life with way too large a bet for most players; even weak ones don't usually just shove a boat there with so little money in the pot. Easy call.

The more I think about it, the more I think he has one of two hands:
* A busted heart draw (which explains the flop call, the defensive turn bet, and the all-out bluff on the river, which many players in that level tourney would try) * A queen, probably QT-QK Less likely is T9 of spades. Would be curious to see results for this one... |

I would love to see what he had myself. Ran my timer all the way down and finally folded. Figured I had enough chips and didn't need to risk it.

Definitely call with the nut flush here. Tougher decision if you had a weaker flush.
And bet more (200) preflop. Standard is 3bb+1bb/limper, and there's rarely a reason to raise less than that...sometimes more is ok. |
