Missed raises with a high hand in 8b?

[JourneyAgain]

I think one of my biggest problems is missing bets / raises with high hands. I think I missed a bet on 4th street, I wasn't sure if I stood well against two low draws but after looking at some hands on twodimes I think I'm doing ok.

I would have jammed on 5th if the other low haven't folded, but then I went into calldown mode against an apparent made low. Do you ever jam these hands in case they're still drawing, or are playing a hidden high hand that they're trying to represent as a low?

This really can't be that big of a leak. I might have led the river, but I like how you played this hand.

[SweetLuckyMe]

This hand is strong enough to continue betting for value. Bet 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th (you made a flush and have one of his 6's - your hand is boss). Sometimes you'll get outdrawn and scooped, but missing value in these sort of spots is difficult to make up in other areas of the game.

Well checking 6th makes absolutely no sense.

[BK1248]

i wouldnt check 6th since all 6's are gone, 7th id bet 100%
