    I dont know what went on here, but you certainly could have bet a lil bit more.

    i dont think you made a mistake here. i think you just ran into a guy chasing (and this time, hitting) a flush. i guess you could have tried to be more aggressive betting wise, but at those limits, i dont know how that would have played out.

    I wonder why the guy doesn't raise the river, when he's got the a high flush?

    Next time, don't check "hide my identity"....


    Your betting pattern is a direct correlation to your confidence in your hand... the less you like your hand, the smaller % of the pot you are betting each time. Especially the turn. An over like that shouldn't scare you. The only over that should really bother you is an Ace, since people like to hold onto aces. I would have bet not less than .80 here.

    PF, I just call.
