What? Wierd hand, especially the way that flop was played.. I can't imaging calling a capped pot with MPTK. with 2 to the flush on the board. But that's just me, and I'm not Fnord.

Raising was my second best/worst play on the flop, after that I'm pretty much committed to see the turn.

Oh I don't blame you, The hand is just played out wierd. I mean, there was 33$ in that pot for you to call 3$, but then UTG+1 caps it. I guess I didn't really evaluate the hand all tlhe way through before making a comment.

I'm a lil surprised by the river bet, wouldn't check/call be better here since the only hands that can raise you have you killed? I think there was a thread about this that I should re-read.

In brief, if you're first to act heads-up to to the river and the fourth flush card hits it's always correct to bet.
