This is just my opinion, but I don't like your flop call for that price. Unless I'm mistaken he's making a near pot sized bet here. Either believe that he has the queen and fold, or don't believe it and push all-in on a semi-bluff. If you push and he does have the queen (which he did) at least you are seeing all 5 cards for your flush draw. Whether you push or fold here depends on your opponent's table image.....but I don't like just calling here. You're chasing.

Tenny was doing the betting. However, when the board is paired, flush draws and straight draws suck. You have 9 outs to hit the flush, or 8 to the open ender; at the river, he has 9 outs to a boat and one to hit quads. This is why trips is one of my favorite hands to play, everyone over-rates their draws.

When he was SB and I was BB and the other two players had folded he raised everytime to take my blind. I had to fold the other times this time with the ace six suited I called it, thinking he was just trying to steal again. I made the bet after the other 2 hearts fell on the flop thinking he had nothing. When he called, I had him on Queens, the turn brought me my ace high flush and figured I had him, which I did until the river. I really didn't think I was chasing, maybe my bet after the flop was too big ?

Whoops, he was betting there and not calling. My mistake. No more trying to read hand histories while at work...
