With this sort of flop, BB can only have str8 + flush draw, right? I think your chance to bluff at the pot came on the turn. If I were villain, I would have thought your play doesn't make any sense and called you on the river with any str8 or flush.

I think the idea is that he lays down any straight here and often a lower flush. Waiting for the river with the flush wouldn't be that unusual and he has A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I like it. But i'd like it more if we knew BB better.

edit: is the SB "marty7"? i was sweating the game earlier. Contemplating the shot I was going to take when I won event #2.

Do you or other players really check behind the turn with the nut flush regularly?

Yeah, beset says that "waiting for the river..." wouldn't be that unusual, but that's if you are calling a bet. Giving a free card is another matter entirely.

It's pretty common in this game.

I datamine the 10/20 on stars and PP and I see this all the time (and occassionally light fire to chunks of my BR by taking shots at the game). In the games I play in i bet the turn because the passive idiots I play with will lpay me off drawing stone cold dead.
