I want some advice on this hand. It was very good for me in the end and I want to know if I played it correctly. Basically, the betting was low enough and there were enough callers that I was chasing my nut flush. I knew full well that the initial better had a high pocket pair but it didn't matter. I thought the pot odds favorable enough for the call.

I appreciate the feedback.

Hahaha love the river.

Looks fine. Can't fold the flop, raising is silly. Same for the turn. Hit your out, make your b ank.

You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

You played it fine... BB, on the other hand, did not... let that be a lesson to isolate with KK

Pot odds were more than there, and you got some good action on the river. Well played

ya did get lucky, but you didnt play it horrible. its probly gonna be hard to push out the kings on the flop or turn, and silly to try on the river, which is really your only other options there. i would have smooth called to the river as well...
