Standard?

A little background: I've been playing conservatively at this blind level, but played two hands in a row aggressively right before this one. Both were legitimate plays, but neither went to showdown.

Thoughts on this line?

fold preflop.

But as it is i don't think calling hte min raise turn is too bad as long as you dont think he has a set, since it turns out he did you were very far behind and were getting bad odds to chase.

Well, that's why I gave some background on the hand in my post. I was confident that I wasn't against a king, and I felt that there was a good possibility CO thought I was stealing. I was getting 3.3:1 on my call with a flush draw and solid pair, so I wasn't going anywhere.

Also, I've never had any qualms about seeing a flop cheaply with QTs on the button, especially with limpers. Maybe I'm way off here.

[draw2aflush]

ur not way off.It sounds standard.Q10suited is a great hand to limp with and if the player had a set they are terrible for not raising alot higher than 100 with a flush draw out.Good play.

[viennagreen]

as long as he didn't put the other guy on a higher flush draw, he wasn't getting bad odds to chase---
T100 more in an approx. T400 pot to see the river.

i think you played it great. Would be a more interesting hand if CO didn't play it like a peice of [censored] though.

I think it was all standard. I certainly wouldn't say you gotta make that call preflop, but I don't think it is bad.

The check raise by the CO on the turn was pretty interesting. In hindsight you can see why it happened, but you would think after checking around on the flop, and having checked most of the way around on the turn, CO would bet out a K or better. In any case, he didn't raise enough to make you fold.

I might have bet the flop if I were you.

The non-standard thing is posting a hand you won. I was fully expecting a better flush. Nice job.
