what a strange hand. I have 42 of hearts in the bb and some random donk minbets. Ok i'll call i bet i like playing limit holdem from time to time. i flop bottom pair and i already have my cards ready to throw in the virtual muck. It's check yippee a free cardz. I turn a flush draw. i have a decent draw and a weak pair so i lead out. Another player raises i assume he has me beaten but i also assume that my flush draw is nearly 100 percent good. Now it's the play off B1 that confuses me. He could have a made hand literally any made hand or a flush draw. If he has a flush draw then it is likely better then mine so maybe i need to discount my fd a little. no exact science here that i know off but since my fd is pretty weak i will take off a entire out and say i have 8 outs or 16 percent to make my hand useing the good old 2/4 rule. so i am geting shorted a little on current odds but surely implied odds justify a call. So i call then bingo a hit my flush. Hold on wtf b1 springs to life the same b1 that flat called on the turn. Damn he did have the flush. i mean how many 2 nl players are gonna float in that spot so they can bluff any river heart. So i begrudgingly fold my flush. Only to see that b1 was useing the uber advanced i'll flat call with my super strong set on the turn so i can bluff raise the flush if a heart hits.

I know i wanted to get more money in the pot but when he raised i thought he lead the river i thought he is bluffing or has a better flush. I went with better flush. Honestly never would of put him on a set a million years
