How far to push third nut - Page 3

I put him on the nuts flush. Calling me down with top pair and got excited when he made his flush. I can't put him on limping with pocket aces or calling with a set on the flop and quads on the turn.

His 4-bet should have woke me up. I guess I just don't get 4-bet too often which is why I brought it up here.

If you'll indulge me a bad beat story, I'm in one of the blinds with Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] X [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and flop A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]-K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]-3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I bet out the whole time. Someone in mid-position with 53o catches runner runner fives.

I learned a couple things in these 2 hands. No more thn 4 bets without the absolute nuts. I overplayed my hands.

and I was greedy.

I just might have gone broke with this hand

Since villain is short stacked and you have no reads You should push him all-in. If he had more money calling 6-bet (or 4-bet) is fine.

Many players make "last shot" then they are short of stack. I do not think AA or 99 is so likely holding you should slowdown before villain is all-in.
