Default Re: Flopped set vs. Board 4 flush on river

After thinking for 10 - 15 seconds, I threw my set faceup into the muck (probably a miskake in and of itself).

UTG smiles and turns over A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Feeling like a slobbering retard, I mumble something like "nice bet" and recall Ed Miller's post about players who "fold too damn much".

Also, I think the manner in which UTG made his river bet should have been a tipoff (even though I didn't know the guy). He leaned forward, said "bet" in a slightly louder than normal voice, and snapped his two $4.00 stacks out in a somewhat aggressive fashion.

I normally don't place much emphasis on tells, but in retrospect it seems like a classic "strong means weak / weak means strong" signal.

Thanks for the input.
