I really thought this guy hit his flush on the turn, but I had put so much in I felt pot committed so I pushed in. I was shocked when he folded. I wonder what he had? By the way, does pot committed apply to NL cash games, or is that just a tournament concept?

If you were going to push on the river, why didn't you do it on the turn when he raised you?

I think you played fine except for the river. If he has a flush, hell call for sure. If he doesnt, he might bet out on a worse hand or just bluff. I would check call here if you think hell only call w/ a flush or str8. In either case you lose to a str8 or flush, but this way you can catch a bluff, or get him to value bet a worse hand then yours.

Check the river to induce a bluff, you are losing it all if he has the flush...

Ya, Obvs check the river. If you feel your money has to go in anyway, you dont want him to fold a worse hand.
