I was sick when I saw the cards, and it's rare for me to muck trips so want to make sure that I did the right thing.

Did I totally blow this, I usually slow play trips and hope that someone catches a piece of it on the flop, if nothing happens I start betting on the turn and try to build a pot.
Had I stayed I would have won, but it seems that the majority of the time this ends up being a -ev play for me to stay in this circumstance after the turn with the betting and 3 to the flush on board.

This is my first hand post so be gentle [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
