The turn call is fishy I know. But his min raise and then $5 on turn was suspect. I pushed on river because I thought he was strong. What should I have raised? $50?

meh, i think you played this hand fine. folding the flop is an option, but with backdoor draws to flush/straight and 2 overs which might/probably are clean, meh.

[Hince]

You get way more value by pushing here than raising $50. In this case, he was probably just weak.

I really wanna know what villian had, wtf is he raising flop, betting turn, and bet/folding river with?

[joeblack]

About an hour later the villian claimed he had JJ. I don't know if I believe this line because why just a min-raise on the flop? JJ could be b.s. and I think he would have insta-called river with JJ.

[ronitonline]

He did not have JJ, he just hit the jackpot, he cant assume you floated with AQ.
I think JJ will call you here almost everytime.

[Rikethink]

Villain did not have JJ. No way. Most likely he flopped top pair, took a shot with that awful bet on the turn, and took another shot when the board got scary and he figured maybe you missed your flush draw. I'd raise the river to an even $100--thinking players will fold two pair to an all-in, and, besides, it's a big overbet (which, I understand, is where some of the value comes from, but still)...

[sh0wtime]

JJ... lol. He had air or some bs ten. Looks like you got max value, nh.
