Tough, up against an AA limper and a four flush flop.

Its easy to sit here in retrospect and say "wellll.." but I think it was played fine. I imagine some will say a turn fold would have been more fitting.

Cap the flop and bet out the turn...the action doesn't look like a flush draw to me so I'm not scared on the turn, but if I'm raised on the turn after capping the flop I start thinking two pair or set and go into call down mode...until the fourth suited card hits on the river--against one opponent, maybe call again, against two probably time to dump at that point.

I think you folded at exactly the right time.

[StellarWind]

I think the flop action will usually mean at least one flush or straight draw. Accordingly: 1) cap the flop 2) check-call the turn and 3) fold the river.

Take a lesson from MP2 and have the A /images/graemlins/heart.gif next time /images/graemlins/grin.gif.

I would have capped the flop and bet out the turn, but that's just me. I don't think there is anything wrong the way it was played. (Except for MP3 and his bizarre love of cowboys that Freud could have a field day with)
