Ok, this is not supposed to be a bad beat story, however I would like to share some thoughts I had playing this hand and would appreciate your comments.


Hitting a flush ace high routinely lets me check if the board is paired to not run into a full house. Do you guys check if there is the possibility of a straight flush?

I didnt here, I instant called his all in. I was more thinking: damn, I missed the royal by one card...

Do you guys like the turn check? I wonder if I should have raised despite the flush board and folded to a reraise to "dodge the bullet".

I think I would always pay someone off again, any insights?

Ok, this hand seems to be to long for the converter:


Villain 1 minbets on river, I bet 10$, villain 2 goes all in I instant call, he shows , had flopped a straight flush.

Raise preflop more, raise the flop, and get it all in on the turn.
My sig is too much for you to handle.

if you dont lose a stack you didnt play it hard enough imo.
If this was a four to the striaght flush situation i think you can get away from only the ace high flush

Yes, I did lose my entire stack on that one, about 35 Dollars.

Why do you go all in on the turn, i don't have the flush yet and without the I would only hold a straight?

The only possible combinations would have been and or and which he was holding.
