I would have played this completely differently. Pre-flop, yes, I like a reraise. I like to play for reasonable sized pots with my good hands. I would have made it around 100-125 to go.

But let's say I played it your way. On the flop you have TPTK and there is 2 to a flush on the board. He bets, you raise - I like this. He reraises. Now you have TPTK, he could very easily have TP, or he may have you beat. I find a flush draw very unlikely at this point. I'm calling here. He'll probably bet the turn, I want this. I want him to put more chips into this pot. On the turn, with so many chips in the pot, I think I might take the pot from him at this point, pushing all-in. If I am worried he may have better than TPTK, I call down. The problem with your flop re-re-raise, is that the only action you are going to get is from hands better than yours or with better draws. I find a better draw to be less likely than a better hand given his play. Point is, I don't mind letting him see another card on this flop.

Agreed, call the raise and let him put more chips in.

Preflop call is fine. Once you're raised, I would just call. I don't expect him to have clubs because players tend to either flat call or move in in this spot. He probably has a hand like AJ/A10 and is drawing to 3 outs. Also, if he checks on the turn I'm checking behind (unless it's a club)

I'm not sure if understanding you guys right here but on the flop the sequence went

I bet, he raised i re-raised he folded.

It seems that you hav it the other way round with me raising not re-raising, or have i just read it wrong???

[CardSharpCook]

yeah, you've misread all 3 posters

[MLG]

you bet he raised, you should then just call.
