Let me give my opinon, as a semi-intermediate person:

I would have called that bet. The chance of a flopped overset is slim. If anything, I'd have put him on the flush draw semi-bluff, with a proper read.

Even if I knew he was pushing a flush draw, I think I'd call. Actually. I know I would.

I have no info. on your read, but at 10$ NL people will do that with TP / 2PR and maybe draws if they are semi-tricky.

My opinion is that is was a good call, although I would have brought more flop heat to make a flush draw very unattractive, but draws will push / call their stack sometimes, from what I've seen.

My opinion. What do others think?

Let me give my opinion, as a self-coined expert:

Bad beat.
What's the difference between a large cheese pizza and a poker player?

A large cheese pizza can feed a family of four.

If you don't lose all your money on this hand, you played it wrong.

I think the forum would be more upset if you didn't lose money. In fact, next time send him a money transfer through PS to cover the fact you should send him more (because he was so short stacked)

Its a fine play and you did all you could want. Its a bad beat

*sigh* That's just the general answer for set over set hands. You have to lose. If you fold here, I would kill you and wear your skin so that people would think I was a fish at the casinos.
