Played in a very low-limit game last night - 2-4 hold-em. I normally don't play this low, but I had no other plans, so why not.

Anyway, I'm in the BB with J /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 8 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif. UTG and button limp. 3 to the flop.

Flop was A /forums/images/icons/club.gif 7 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 4 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif. I check, UTG checks and button bets. I consider semi-bluffing, but just call. UTG calls.

Turn brings 2 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif completing my flush. I check, UTG checks, button bets. I raise, UTG re-raises. Button folds. Should I re-raise here or call it down to the river?

I re-raise only to get raised back. I call.

River was a blank, check, UTG bets, I call. He turns over nut flush.

Was my re-raise on the the turn a bad play?

Thanks.

Yeah, one thing that 2-4 players can recognize is the nut flush. When you got raised on the turn, it wasn't a semibluff, it wasn't a 'let's see where you are?', it was the nut flush. If you had to, you could of called him down, but the reraise was foolish.
