Weird but your straight flush is a bluff catcher!

yet everyone is perfectly fine with leading the river.

eh. once he shoves it's a bluff catcher, that doesn;t mean he folds the K/Q to a bet.

Villain's not going to bluff here and he calls with two hands and hollywood pushes one so I think betting is fine.

OevgO ,
Betting the Kh or Qh is terrible. However you can call a bet with it if you put sossman on air. Like Betting the Kh/ Qh what are you expecting to gett called by the 5h? Top pair?

he's gonna call more than he's gonna bet, both in size and in frequency. Plus sometimes you get the retard disbelief call from sets/AK/straights, who are never ever ever betting. They aren't a large part of his range, I agree, but he could have JsJc, and call a bet, but never bet when checked to. Not saying he calls every time he has a hand like this, but he doesn't fold every time either.

Nice laydown but all I can say is thank god he showed. That would be a tough one to be thinking about at night if he didn't show and just smiled.

Not many amateur players wouldn't show a straight flush.

Soss,

Just curious. If old nit was about to muck, you ask him to show, and he offers to show for 10% of your action would you agree?
