Pre-Flop
I raised here because If I am in the hand I like to come in raising so I can bluff more believable at a flop that misses my hand. AmericasCardroom has mostly weak players. I am exploring a more aggressive style and it seems to have some potential and some pitfalls. But I digress, back to the hand.

Flop
I had the Nut Flush on the flop. Acting first I did not bet the flop. Wanted him to not fear the flush, figured I would bet later. He bet the flop, figuring him for a straight or straight draw and knowing I had that beat I checked.

Turn
Figured that he bet the flop and would bet the turn I let him bet again. When he bet the turn I raised him. The board had paired so trips and two pair crossed my mind. Full house also crossed my mind but he did not reraise so I thought I was in good shape.

River
The board now looked absolutely straightish. He bet and I put him on a straight. Having the nut flush I put him all in.

Results in white below:

VILLIAN shows: Full House (8/7) [8h 8c]. Bets: 30.76. Collects: 61.87

He had a pair of 8's and the board was 5s 7s 9s 7c 8d
