 Sorry for cluttering the forums everyone.

I’m really really putting a lot of effort into my game right now and am feeling very frustrated. Hopefully soon I can stop sucking you all dry for opinions and start putting a good deal of time into careful and detailed replies to other ppl’s tough spots.

Both flop and turn seem really close to me. Maybe I'm just a donk though.

let me see if i can understand why you would say this. because he called in the BB from an UTG raise, and c/r flop, and then proceeds to make a pot sized bet on turn when an ace comes. so it is unlikely he is c/r A high on flop, and even if you were c/r A high and hit, wouldnt you go more for value than betting pot on a not very drawy board?

because he is betting quite a lot to project the image that he is pot committed, not folding, and is very strong, when in fact he has a draw. and a check-raise on this flop means a draw a lot, if he just had an ace he would not bet so big because the flop action suggest both players have an above average hand, it would probably be more of a blocking/protecting bet.

 i m glad I posted this

I folded and I think it's cuz I was reverse-tilting

came within a hair's width of shoving flop

came really close to shoving turn

gah, I agree with those saying the turn bet is fishy and looks like he wants to commit himself with a big draw that I'm prob leading like 72/28
