I knew nothing about my opponent. I decided I wanted to see his action on the turn so I called the flop. Then I thought he might be weak, but was wrong and committed myself to the pot. comments?

I think your line, assuming youre generally a pretty agressive player, is fine IMO. You make a strong push bluffing an obvious 67, and in the case of a raise, can still call with flush and straight outs to the nuts. Plus, if your opponent flat calls the turn and the river blanks I think that you still have fold equity to push the river. Perhaps you overplayed it, but I have no significant problem with this hand.

I know it is a c-bet, but unless we think villian will go broke with unsuited kk, calling with top pair no kicker seems to be a bad option. Calling turn reraise getting 3.4 to 1 is fine.

Ya, I really feel like I need some information on my opponent to be able to make that call. I should have folded the flop.
