My biggest question on this hand is how y'all would have bet the river. I'd used a strong raise to take a bunch of MP1's chips a few hands earlier, and couldn't help feeling he had me in his sights. A second question would be whether anyone bets the flop here. I would have folded to a strong bet.

I think my river bet of t100 was the worst possible thing to do, and I've never felt like such a little girl. If he's got the straight or flush, he'll reraise. If not, he'll fold.

i'd have done a little more than half pot bet. He could very well call with a pair of aces or 2 pair of some kind i think.
