a $73 pot at $1-2? damn.

I did get a $22 pot at a .25/.50 limit table the other day, that was pretty amazing.
take your ego out of the equation and judge the situation dispassionately

Your flop and turn plays puzzle me. The pot is huge, so slow playing the flop is silly when you will get the most loose action there. The turn play is puzzling, you should be building a bigger pot here, not leading into LAgg to shut out of the pot players who are drawing dead but would be happy to call single bets anyway.

 i don't really understand why you didn't checkraise the flop. everybody had called for $1 at that point, so raising to $2 would have doubled your take on this round, because nobody would have folded. in fact someone might have re-raised you, juicing the pot even more. (as occurred on the turn.) this is pretty basic pot management. you didn't maximize your profit here.

This is the kind of feedback I need. Per my new signature, I think I underplay these winning hands sometimes but I'm often not sure.

Thanks for the reality check.
