Nut Flush On Turn Twice, Board Pairs On River(low content)

[grandgnu]

Ick, I really hate when I've got the nut flush on the turn and then the board just has to pair on the river. Happened to me twice tonight, but both times I STILL WON! Yee-friggin-haw!

Each time I hit my nut flush I'm saying to myself "here comes the river pair" and sure enough it hit. But my hand held up both times.

Was anyone else drawing to the second nut flush? I too hate it when the board pairs, but I find that there is always at leat 1 person chasing a 2nd or 3rd nut flush to the river then re raising when it hits. These people more then make up for when the board pairs and I have to call an extra bet and loose to a full house. Of course I play .5/1 on Party Poker, so it might be different at a higher limit [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

You know, I don't recall. There are plenty of fish that will stick around with a straight on a flush and boat board. They might've been chasing a low as well, plenty of fish go after non-nut lows, which is great.

I'm only playing the $0.50/$1 mostly myself. I've played some 1/2, although there aren't as many games at that limit and the pots aren't as big, respectively, as I'd like.

I tried to multi-table the 2/4 game, but it was too high for my bankroll and it's only served to knock me back down repeatedly to the $0.50/$1 game. So for now I'm just grinding it out until I have about $500-$600, before I try the 2/4 games again.
