While I am apathetic about my PF play, I do see some merit in it. I was a little tilty, jsut had taken a beat, so that may have played in. I am not fond of my River play.

I'm not sure why you raised the turn. Redsleeds woke up on the turn with the K. You are unlikely to have a better K vs this guy, so why bump it?

River you donked thats a marginal call, not a reraise.

Top pair, Flush, ISSD, I felt I had equity to raise the turn. ANd my thoughts exactly on the river.

I'd say you are lucky the guy is a bigger Donk and didn't re-raise the turn

I'd fold PF call turn. call river

Maybe a newbish question, but why bet flop? Seems to me that if you hit the flush K high, you'd almost certainly have a lock on the nuts, correct? So wouldn't you want as many to stay in as possible, to get the best profit-risk ratio for your return?

I was semi-bluffing. Since I figured I had some equity, might as well put some money in. It may win the pot right there (good) or it will give me odds to draw to the next card if I want.

If the two limpers are super loose, you should be raising this preflop. If they have 35s+ 23s+ TJo+ 22+, raising is the best play, except for may be folding.

As played, I bet flop and raise turn. If its 3bet,I call and check/fold river w/o improvement. If TS calls river, you still paying it off?
