 Bet the flop, and re-raise the turn harder. You have a very strong hand and you wanna build this pot up BIG.

My stack is going in here all day, without second thought. If he turned or rivered you, then thats just unlucky. You can't be results oriented here.

This board has straight possibilities and flush possibilities, so there are a lot of worse hands here that could think they are good with a raise on the river.

Reads on villain would help too. If villain is super-nit then I _might_ call his raise on the river, instead of pushing.

 u have to push the river. Calling his raise is losing too much value.

cool I can see I should have raised the turn properly, It's hard to bet the flop though, I kind of wanted to let him catch up (not that much though).

 His range here is like A high flush, 77, 99, TT, trip k's and then K9 and KT. Just get it in bud, it's a bad beat if you lose.

 You shoulda folded to the extra $1.. by then it's too certain you're losing.

I know it looks like I played the earlier streets poorly but there was a lot of intense reading, nth level thinking and metagame stuff going on with the donkish slowplaying.

Ok, not really, I suck, I will play it better next time.
(In fact I'm still not even sure what metagame means.)
