thats some rough luck, I think when mp1 calls all in you should start to think about the possiblity of a higher flush, I'd probably still call here, but the raise may have been a little reckless.

Pot 3: $3.35, returned to Hero. <- could have been worse

that happend to me in a tourney but I was able to fold it on the flop because of the action.

**Jason75** · 05-25-2006

Ah, this does happen. Again, I'm not a cash game player, but a bet, an all in call . . . . I think just calling is the right option with a 6 high flush.

This reminds me of a tourney hand i had a while back. I had A9d, flop came 3d 5d 6d.

I flop the nut flush, another player flops the Q-high flush, and some moron has 47d and flops the fucking straight flush.

Let's just say I didn't do well in that tourney.

Your raise isn't good imho.

With 2 others in the pot you can beat almost nothing but a bluff and an idiot who thinks his straight is any good.

**Beavis68** · 05-25-2006

with the puny turn bets, the raise is ok. If you are going to call, you may as well push. If that action had happened on the turn it would be little different.

Damn. You played this like crap.

What is the point in not betting the turn? You want the other Heart to hit? You want the Nut to slutplay you and only find out on the river?

You have a weak flush, you need to put in a raise on the turn here to see if anybody else has a flush, if they do, you need to get teh hell out of the way.

The way you played this... this is an easy fold on the river. New bettor shows up and shows big, hes gets a caller, and you are bent over a chair with this crappy flush.... Fold for value.
