Re: 54s on the button - how\'s my line?
Here were my thoughts on the hand -
I have no read on UTG+2 but BB was an uber-rock.
When UTG+2 bet I put him on top pair - I figured I'd call and push him off his hand on the turn.
When BB called I wasn't sure what to think. When BB then led on a non-spade turn I immediately put him on a baby flush. Many rocks will take this line with a baby flush - not wanting to invest a lot of money OOP on a hand where you're not going to win a lot but could lose a lot.
I only called the turn because I figured I was probably behind and didn't think a raise would fold a better hand.
When the river spade hit, the rock's weak bet told me he didn't like it. Seeing as how I put him on a low flopped flush the only way I take it down is to raise. Also, from his perspective I could very easily have been drawing to that fourth spade with the naked As.
So basically my raise was meant to represent a high spade and was meant to get him to fold - which he did.
