Dammit, so close

Looks pretty good to me. I think that I need to find more places like this to let villain hang himself.

What about c/r the turn instead? Too obvious and/or giving him a reason to call down?

nm didnt notice you hit your draw

from the authority himself!!!


I think with his high river-ag this is good time to let him bet his pair (or whatever) for value.
Chance he might actually have that flush of course...but you're holding the nut-flush card so that helps a lot.


Against a normal player here I would think that trying to do this would be a bad idea because he's going to be scared of the board with his pair and just check it through when he would have called-down and you'll miss a bet.
But, again, against this guy it looks like the chances of that happening are slimmer and it certainly isn't going to be balanced out by those rare times he will 3-bet you with a flush.

i don't like it. too many opponents will check behind with four cards to a straight on board, and this guy isn't exceptionally aggressive.
