I've only been playing for a couple months, and I'm trying to improve my game. This hand kinda confused me. I have a midle flush on the turn, but slowed down on the river for fear of a bigger flush. Should I have played this differently? what type of odds are there for an opponent to have a bigger flush in this situation?
