Yeah you should bet pot again on the turn in my opinion (or at the VERY least, $5).

Maybe you could have pushed him off with a bet on the turn.

Yeah, thought of that too... I didn't think I was playing against a flush after my flop-bet...
But maybe your right...
I played two tables at once so I didn't have a good player-reading.
Maybe I'm not ready for two tables at once...
TONIGHT I'm KRUSCHED!!!!!!!! $50 loss...
I love the feel of Hold'em control...

K8o with top pair crappy kicker. Imo the other player was real loose. And would have called you down until the river.

The turn check game him a free card. Also, This should have folded the river.

I would have bet the turn... given that you didn't, I then would have folded the river. Guy calls, calls, checks, then comes alive with a decent bet when a flush card shows up? Not a profitable call there, he's very likely to have made his flush.

This sort of action is standard with weak players.

Be more aggressive. Drop the weak/tight style.

People will almost always call on the flop with a flush draw.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

I think of it this way. If you are willing to call a $4 bet on the river with your hand unimproved and a flush possible, why not bet it instead? Preferably on the turn while he is drawing.

But then again, top apir weak kicker with somebody calling is a hard hand. Fold river.

Bet the turn - make him pay for his/her flush.

Their bet on the River signaled they hit the flush - fold.
If you put all your faith in the river, you are up shit's creek
