this hand was the first hand in a long time where i was the one calling down...not my opponents. i don't think i played it particularly bad...maybe i could have 3bet the flop, but otherwise i think my turn play was ok. i'm not particularly happy with calling down on the river though...well rip my play apart...

Well looking at the flush on the board, some hands that would be likely for the BB to have would be KTs or maybe some suited connector like T8s. Thats where the 3-bet comes in - if you get capped... you can be pretty sure youre virtually drawing dead. In all other situations, you have 8 outs... I dont know exactly what else I would do in this situation. 3betting seems like necessity on the flop.

River: Somebody probably caught that last queen, not to mention youre up against the possible nut flush. Check/fold here maybe? Maybe im too scared, but aggressive play here just seems like its not a good idea.

Maybe Im wrong... I just started playing 6max so maybe someone with more experience would be more insightful.

CO's play seems suspicious. Passive, passive, inc. a cold call on the turn. Then fiesty when the other Q comes out.

I would put himher on a Q and a spade, and fold. With AK I'd give it a crying call.

I'd 3-bet the flop. Turn is ok. Tough call on the river. Huge pot, but I don't see how top pair is good here very often.

CO shows [ , :Qc: ] a full house, Queens full of fours.
CO wins $41.5 from the main pot with a full house, Queens full of fours.
