two pair vs flush chaser

[humiliation]

need your opinion on this hand, particularly river play. i wasnt happy about calling but felt like i had to. i really didnt think he was chasing because he was solid for the past 100 hands.

totally depends on the player. if you know he chases every flush c/c any bet with a draw then its an easy fold on the river. if he c/c with pairs then you know you are ahead and its an easy river call. if i have a dead read that this is exactly how a person plays turn and river with a draw then i fold the river. i also (even though you made a proper bet only giving about 2.67:1 on the turn) i like to jam this pot up esp if you know they are calling on a draw because you make much more when they miss. if player is solid then he most likely didnt call the turn with those odds. hope u were good
