I'm open to ANY critizism as to what I did wrong. I felt that guy shouldn't have called a $5+ bet with pocket 4s on the flop with no trips... What's your thoughts?

Dosen't look like you did anything wrong. Even if your raise was more substantial after the flop, I still think Suds was going to try and take the pot anyways.

Maybe I'm just a wimp, but with his raise, I would have put him on either trips Aces or Queens (which I think he was trying to bluff) and folded. He just got real lucky on the turn and it paid off. He would have been in bad shape had someone actually been holding A/A or Q/Q.

Basically, he gambled and came out ahead. Imagine how the trips Ace guy felt. Getting it from both of you.

Post-flop you played it fine. I think you had to bet the turn, but it didn't really matter.

I agree with the others but I don't like the river raise, its to high, the last thing you want is to scare everyone out when you have a strong hand.

If you had the table read though and was pretty certain you would be called, go nuts :P
Poker is all about the long long long long long long long term . . .

Yea I think I went nuts on the river, but I truly believe I had the best hand.

A turn bet would have setup a more callable river bet.
