3 Bets 100
I move all in
3 Thinks for awhile and then calls with A /images/graemlins/heart.gif5 /images/graemlins/heart.gif
River is a heart and he takes it with the flush. Now at first I thought he played this hand terribly. After thinking about it more, I'm curious, am I the one who played this hand wrong? At the turn should I have simply called and seen what would happen? My first line of thought was that I wantedd to scare off the flush draw, but my initial feel of this guy was that he wouldn't fold teh flush and that was what he was drawing at. Should I have simply called on the turn to see what the river brought then trust my instinct? I'm curious about this.
