Little bit of a tough beat in this tourney today. Im wondering if anyone would have played this hand differently. Should i have raised more on the flop?. I think The flush draw with the belly buster still calls, given his chipstack. Any thoughts?

[Rushmore]

You're getting broke on this hand.

Non-results-orientedly, I'd say it's a good line. You have flopped a straight, and want to get all of your chips in. There are two ways to do this: the way you did, or betting out, hoping to be raised, and reraising all in.

There aren't many other ways to play this hand with this board from the blind.

[Roman]

Bad beat police?

[Namdrahsirhc]

Thanks for the response Rushmore. I keep beating myself up for not betting right out

[Spladle Master]

Fold pre-flop.

[Namdrahsirhc]

I dont know if you read the whole thing or youre being sarcastic, but I was in the big blind and checked

[Conor]

You sound as though you wanted some folds. You are the favorite, and as such you played it well. Didn't work out, but it more than often will.

if you're on a string of bad luck, to the lucky ass big stack,when you're 90%+ to win before the river,and he hits that miracle card again,do like i did,and throw your computer thru the window,and curse the poker gods!!!!!
although this hand had many options for all 3 players,so a tough one!
