Default Re: Comments on Hand

I like your play here. Since you weren't reraised PF, it's unlikely that villain has a high pocket pair, so your overcard outs are probably good. That leaves you with about 15 outs, so you're nearly even money to win this hand even if you're beaten on the flop (assuming he didn't catch trips), and heavily favored otherwise.

Your flop bet also bought you a free look at the river. I like taking a free card here, although some may argue for a bet. When he checks the turn, my thinking is there's a good chance villain caught a small piece of the flop, but is also drawing at the flush. So take a free card, knowing that if the flush hits you'll probably take his whole stack.
