As soon as I made this bet, I hated it. Was on tilt from other hands. Everyone hate it also?

I think check-calling earns you more.

Pussymaster has shown willingness to keep betting, so I think the chances he puts in money with worse hand is reasonable.

I think he played badly if he has JQKx or something like that since his turn bet is into a fairly dry sidepot -- I think he'd just take the free card. So I can't really put him on KQ often enough here, but its still possible

Heres the thing, if you liked your hand enough on the flop push like a maniac, your hand is great against a set or something along those lines on the flop, but if you let everyone in there your non nut straight draws are going to comeback to bite you. I mean the guy raised to 60 he didnt go for the max raise which means he doesnt have 10/10.

Also as far as your bet goes, the only hand that calls you here is one that beats you, I think you could have gotten 60 more out of him if you just let him bet. Now you know that he will raise with the goods and just fold anything else and you have contributed 150.

Greg, Jorge, you're both right on the mark. He folded. Jorge, good point about the non-nut str only being effective if I push on the flop. Good points both of you, all around. Hadn't thought about any of what you guys brought up.
