Re: 5/10 hand - Very little to learn, but a happy ending!
with that much action on a passive table, i may figure that i may have 17 outs that can beat me....i know this because ive also lost with this type of holding...except i flopped an A high, nut str8 with the nut flush draw, and lost on the river. maybe im jaded, but i just dont get too excited until they push me the pot...
"Having been burnt by slowplaying flopped straights before, I decide to play this fast"
some of these losses you may have lost anyways regardless of if you played fast or not. and yes, there are times when you fold a str8 on big pots when the flush gets there. there are times to trust your read. the other guy, if he really had it, saved a bet on the river here...credit him for a good read...
