This hand shows the strength of betting a draw to the nuts. I should add that it was a 6max table where I played pretty aggressive representing a lot, and few of the hands went to showdown, and that I recently had tried to bluff the guy with an AI bet but got caught. There were less money involved that time, though... not too bad pot for a .10/.25 nl table, huh?

ilikeaces86 is on a distinguished road
.5 bet on the flop wasnt exactly a strong bet.

He horribly, horribly misplayed that hand. Just terrible. Flopped two pair and had you the whole way, and he just calls both the flop and turn - then on the river when he's almost certainly beat, he springs to life and starts raising? Congrats on the pot, but no player worth half a crap would have given you that much money on this hand. Unless they gave it all to you up front. With that board and that hand, if I were him, I would have raised you HUGE right on the flop.

Yeah it´s true. It was an awful play from his side. But I guess he was trying to "bust" me trying to steal the pot.
