    Default low straight on turn, played correctly?

    Villain is 38/0 across 15 hands, 1.3 agg

    flop: I raise with a straight flush draw. 1 folds and 1 calls. I put him on a drawing hand or TPTK. With low suited connectors I feel somewhat nervous unless I hit the 8

    turn: get my straight, still worried, make a PSB and he calls again putting in some worry that he's still drawing for the higher flush

    river: J makes me now worried about a higher straight but looking back he would have had the nut straight already so bad thinking on my part. should I have led out again? c/r? i just feel maybe i played too passive.

    -____-....hes a 38/0, he wiill stack off with like any king wtf are you doing you are good here like 90% of the time....and open pre or fold pre, do not limp. only thing beating you is T9 which he likely only plays the suited ones, but either way he has so many kings in his range that it does not matter how many combos of T9 he has. Pot the turn and pot/overbet the river

    Shove. Villain has 3/4 pot left on the river and is calling down with a shitload of kings that he's not going to bet with if you check.

    Like already state, raise pre flop (limping makes you unaware of your hands value post flop). And given his stats, play all in on the river.

    OP, please don't raise 54s in MP. Open fold pre.

    Shove river, as played jam over villain's bet.

    don't limp pre, flop bet is good, turn bet is good, river and villain has < pot behind and why the hell aren't you betting? I like $0.98

    also, why the hell are you nervous when you turn the nuts?
