Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Hero ($39.4)
UTG ($35.85)
UTG+1 ($49.15)
UTG+2 ($46.3)
MP1 ($22.9)
MP2 ($35.95)
MP3 ($15)
CO ($46.25)
Button ($21.9)
SB ($37.8)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, K/images/graemlins/spade.gif. SB posts a blind of $0.1.
UTG calls $0.25, UTG+1 calls $0.25, UTG+2 calls $0.25, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP3 calls $0.25, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls $0.25, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero checks.
(Button's LAG-ed out &amp; out of control.)
Flop: ($1.60) 2/images/graemlins/club.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif, K/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $1</font>, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $1, UTG+2 folds, MP3 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $2</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $6</font>, UTG+1 folds, Button calls $4.
(Miniraise says "free card play" like it was (and isn't it?) going out of style. Bigger reraise? I'm not sure a karate chop to the throat would get this guy out of here.)
Turn: ($14.60) 6/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets $4</font>, Hero calls $4.
([censored]. Representin'. I peel to fill up. This guy will bitch while he pays off, but he'll pay.)
River: ($22.60) 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, Button calls $11.65 (All-In), Hero folds.
(No dice.)
Final Pot: $34.25

Anybody play that one any differently? My only thought is that I could have made a bigger reraise - $10? Push? - on the flop.

Further note - this guy took a line I see at $25 NL over and over - completely underbetting &amp; miniraising on the flop and turn w/ strong hands, thus pricing other peoples' draws in, then pushing / overbetting the river once they were sure their hand was good. WTF do people do this for? Isn't this the exact opposite of good play?

yeah bigger reraise might be ok.

your other option is to bet $4 on the turn yourself and he'll probably come over the top with a flush but fold anything else and be somewhat less likely to bluff the flush.
