A lot of the times when you I lose my TPTK or sets to the flushes I get . But sometimes when those sets become full houses and the flush also completes, its party time
------------------------------------------------
Hand 1:
Is raising pocket 10 from EP a good idea ? i have won some pots with 10's but have lost some big ones where i played them aggressively only to have an overcard show up on river and beat my pp. Anytime 2 overcards come, i lay it down right away

CO has Qd Kc (flush, ace high).
Outcome: Hero wins 19.50 BB.
------------------------------------------------
Hand 2:

I 3 bet the flop thinking BB is on a flush draw not on a flush already. the turn made my cards safe. If the board didnt pair on the turn, then go into a check call mode till the river even if another of flush suit comes on the turn right ?

However, sometimes it has become very expensive for me when i get squeezed between 2 flush draws or one flush and one nut flush draw and they raise and reraise and i keep calling hoping for the board to pair. is that bad play ? I am 4:1 to make it by each street and with only 3 people no odds ??

Superb play sir...I always call 20% of my stack off with a gutshot draw. Excuse me while I race for my wallet.

Sweet Jesus yes. First hand is perfect.

In the second I'm raising preflop to exploit the equity edge. The turn looks like a perfect place for a check/raise.
