Villain was 45/10 over 32 hands. Had previously seen hands like A rag and low pocket pairs raised preflop.

I bet 3/4 of the pot on the turn, thinking if he had a draw this would not give him right odds to chase but as soon as he simply called I thought trips which is why I checked the river. Then I noticed he also had a flush draw on the turn which would have given him good odds for calling - but not when I raised his bet on the flop.

I could have lost a lot more money here I guess but I thought I didn't give him the right odds to keep calling.

Reraise pre. Good raise on flop. Bet close to pot on turn. Good check on river. Don't show results. You played it ok. You want stations to go for gutshots. But, the thing to note is that he picked up a flush draw on the turn as well. Build the pot with strong TP hands against stations.

This is a leak.

This hand belongs in the tilt forum. You clearly didn't give this guy odds to call and you know it.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
