Just like the last hand, raise to 4xBB preflop and bet more on the flop. This one is better, size wise on the flop, than the last one, but with soooo many draws out there, I would much prefer a full pot bet here.

On the turn, ugh. If you're going to call the raise, you have to c/f the river as if the flush doesn't beat you, the straight does now too. I think I fold to the raise on the turn though, even getting almost 6:1.

Meh at raising this UTG at 25NL. Bet closer to pot on flop. Turn is fine, I'd bet a little more though. River is weird, I can't see anything but a straight or flush calling a raise though. Looks like he made his straight but you have to pay him.

Oh and call me a nit, but huge pet peeve here...

the turn is not a "re-raise", it's simply a raise. I hate that even guys like Lon Mceron (sp?) on ESPN get this wrong...grates me to no end.

fold river imo everything else seems ok

PF raise is okay if table is tight and 5-handed. Bet a tad more on flop and turn. I'd call turn. Probably have to fold river unless you have a read on him in these spots.

I rarely ever fold to these 1/5 pot bets on the river, it's so often complete air or a missed draw. Post flop looks ok here.
