Did I play this like a scaredy cat?
 

villian in hand is 38/10 after 10.5. WE haven't really been playing vs. eachother much, no nothing special. He seems like a typical losing pp player.
Calling too much and not thinking on that high of level.

no

Re: Did I play this like a scaredy cat?
 

the turn doesnt change much if anything

i like a raise on the turn, you probably went set over set/two pair and the board is "trying" to kill your action

yeah the river sucks, but i dont think he had a flush draw

Re: Did I play this like a scaredy cat?
 

he had 3,4 for the str8, I wasn't scared of the flush at all, I put him on 2 pair, set, or str8, I thought he might fold two pair to river or turn reraise, so no value in raising vs. that. But if he had set it was half the time I was ahead half the time he was ahead. So no value in raising there. And obviously if he has str8 we get it all in there, so I figured I lose more by raising and rarely make more. Do you guys think that's sound logic??? I have a tight image.
