Default AsTs Button... Too aggressive?

I'm curious if I played this hand right... was I putting to much value on the flush potential? should I have folded on his reraise?

I would call the turn raise, and fold the river. I think you're beat after the turn raise. He might have had a King or just got his Queen and the pot isn't that big to pay one bet just in case.

Reads would help.

I don't like leading this flop. You have gutshot + nutflush, but headsup I don't think you can valuebet here.

Check/call the turn, check/fold to a river bet (unless you improve of course).

With 4 people in this hand and being OOP I would check this on the flop. If a person bets and there is a caller, raise for value.

Once the turn comes, however, your pot equity gets cut in half, and you have less people in the hand. Check it, and call a bet since you have plenty of odds to draw.

The only time I'd bet this turn is when it is HU and I think I have fold equity based upon the turn card. The Q isn't scary to anyone who has a K, and there isn't a completed draw on the board. So your fold equity here is virtually nil.

KO

You're the button and you were first to act on each street? Or convertor error?

the converter screws up a lot for pokerroom, specifically on position. try to preview your hands and include all the action. you're BB, not button, right?

flop: I bet here every time against any number of opponents. we want to fold something like T2 or A4.
turn: I bet here every time heads up. lots of jokers will call the flop bet with crap and muck the turn. you have a good chance to pick up the pot right here. after he raises, this is a clear call. you have a flush draw, a gutshot to the nuts, and an overcard.
river: I don't think I can call here without a strong read that villain will c/r bluff. we're almost certainly beat.
