Been playing more poker recently, not as much as Id like thanks to college exams etc. Im not used to playing these types of hand, im at a loss on how I should have played it. On the river, should I have made a reraise? If so, how much? Is there value here? Hes a typically tight passive player, what should i do?

I don't see a river. So I can't comment on that action...

Why did you overbet the flop? And what do you think he would be raising you with on a limped pot?
Hey knucklehead! Bonk!

well was I not priced in on the flop to catch a flush? if hes raising the flop he had top pair or better. I really only called the turn cuz he bet too small. Sry, i forgot to paste the rest of the hand history.

ya you are pretty much priced in on flop/turn if you count 14 outs.
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.
