flopped OESD

I called, he beat me with a 78.

That's poker.

I think a flop bet would have chased him off with a only a gutter.

Someone else bet the flop for you, and unless gutter-guy was the bettor, he had no business calling, so I doubt he'd have folded if you had bet.

I agree with other posters that betting out is awful here. I think you played it perfectly. And I call the push gleefully. (Then curse like a sailor, but as you say, that's poker.)

My bad, he actually has the third nuts. This is a definite fold then [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
