    You got your money in with the best hand and got him to call a draw (i'm a bit surprised he did even with his 14 outs)

    I personally like waiting for a better time to double up, but this certainly almost worked for you.

    this is how i would play it, as you gain more outs on the turn

    EDIT:even with his stack, i think SB had no business calling

    It's only 10 outs for the villain. The , , and improve his hand but give HSM a flush.

    If I'm the villain, it's an obv fold for me on the turn.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    So you would call the flop bet of 800?

    tbh, I raise, but that might be the cash game side of me creeping in.

    I would def call on the flop. The bet is less than 10 percent of his chips and he had overs and was open ended. However his call on the turn was pathetic.
