Default Should I fold my backdoor flush?

No particular read on villian...typical tag stats at like 22/15 or so.

Also, what do you think of the size of my river raise? Anyone go to like $250 instead?

<font color="red">BB bets $90</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $360</font>, <font color="red">BB raises all in to $1,304.75</font>

it's a little more than $600 to call.

I'd fold, I'd have raised a little less on the river like you said though to make it an even easier fold.

edit: Actually this is BS, I'd probably raise that much with a backdoor draw too. Still a fold though I feel.

I think your river raise is fine. I prolly fold here, but his weak turn donk really confuses me, as i wouldnt think a typical tag would want to invite bluffs on that turn with just a flush draw.

Have you been real active lately? Also, do you bluff raise in this spot a reasonable amount?

My donk view is that this guy flopped a set or had 10J and played it poorly and compounded that error on the river. Your raise is a a little stealy/bluffy/wreckless feeling so mayhave induced an aggravated shove.

Prove me wrong please, you called he had the nuts?
