Ultimate Bet 0.50/1 Hold'em (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 6, 5.
2 folds, MP1 calls, 1 fold, Hero calls, 1 fold, Button calls, 1 fold, BB checks.

Flop: (4.50 SB) T, Q, 8 (5 players)
BB bets, UTG folds, MP1 calls, Hero calls, Button raises, BB calls, MP1 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.25 BB) 2 (4 players)
BB bets, MP1 calls, Hero calls, Button raises, BB calls, MP1 folds, Hero calls.

River: (13.25 BB) K (3 players)
BB bets, Hero calls, Button calls.

Final Pot: 16.25 BB


I felt the need to get away from this hand -- but I couldnt find a place that felt correct to do so. I hit my flush card, and I didn't even raise that -- I thought my flush was beat by the donk/gay-bettor.

Fold preflop?

Raise the river. It's hard to put BB on the flush draw since he lead out at the turn. If he has a bigger flush, good for him.

I was kind of hoping the button would raise for me.
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

These types of players usually go nuts until about the river when they realize that they didn't scare anyone out of the pot with their agression and they think theire middle pair might not be good. You've got a pretty strong hand here. If you raise and get two callers, you win 3 more bets than just calling and button overcalling.

Getting 3-bet wouldn't be fun, but I still don't think a higher flush is likely.
