PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) converter

BB ($10.20)
Hero ($25)
MP ($8.15)
Button ($26.90)
SB ($31.50)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
Hero raises to $0.75, 3 folds, BB calls $0.50.

Flop: ($1.60) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets $0.75, Hero calls $0.75.

There are no draws whatsoever. Rainbow. I am very, very, very ahead at this point

Turn: ($3.10) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets $1.25, Hero calls $1.25.

I was considering bumping it to $3 here but I didn't want a lower pocket pair to get away that easily. There is a flush draw, and I am slightly scared of it but not really.

River: ($5.60) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets $2.25, Hero calls $2.25.

Oops. Flush card hit. He has $5 left. Do I tap him?

Final Pot: $10.10

I didn't have to many hands against villian, but he hadn't gotten out of line. Should I have pushed the river? He played a flush a couple orbits ago in a similar manner.

BB had ~$5 left after the river bet.

Why does he have both a mid pocket pair, and a flush draw.

Make up your mind and go with it.

I shove this river everytime.

you have to raise the turn.

I've been experimenting with raising hands like this on the flop because nobody expects that....but i'm meeting with mixed results so far.

Yuck..raise the turn here.

I call the turn in position and push on the river.

That's the line I should have taken.

Anyway he shows the black 99 and I rake in the marginal pot. I stack him with my AA on the very next hand.

he only has $5 left? why are you not pushing?

Get all of his money in!!!!!! I would have pushed the turn, but your call is not hideous if you put him on a pocket. Get his money in on the river.

If he is going to lead the betting everytime he is three to a flush or straight you should take his stack like a 4th grade bully in the kindergarden playground [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
