I called. Villain had J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. He spiked a (non-heart) 10 on the river.

I was pretty sure no one had a flush. Would it be disastrous to have just bet all-in on the flop, figuring I'd scoop the pot 90% of the time.

Thanks for the comment about pf play - I'll definitely tighten up. In retrospect, I probably should have checked the flop.

If you bet all in, you only get called by a set or a flush, and you're drawing at just your flush. The pot's not that big, not worth all your chips.
