    By his turn re-raise its pretty obvious you are beat and you have 0 FE. You have been re-raised 2 straight steets. Terrible time for a bluff.

    We have the third nuts. Im pretty sure this isnt a bluff.

    Your mistake in this hand was the preflop limp in poor position. Once you hit a flush you want the money to go in against a range that is mostly weaker flushes and occasionally sets/ 2pairs.

    Pre-flop isn't that bad. I might even raise.

    Am I reading it wrong? It looks to me like he is on the button. In which case he is in good position. I think you played this fine.

    Against a lot of players you can fold this turn.

    bah I replied drunk and thought he was UTG+1 for some reason. Yea preflops ok and raising first time around is also nice. I wouldnt limp/reraise the minraise after so many others had called though.

    That's clearly not what he's asking about.

    Whaaaaaaaat?

    OP, that hand plays out about the same for me. Shrug it off and move on to the next one.

    PF is more than fine with this many callers, Stop showing results when you post hands. As for the flop I C-bet more ( $1 into $2 pot sucks) and probably 4 bet shove if I think my Q is a good over. You have to think, if you put him on a J then you have 15 outs, the flush, 3 Q's and 3 9's for the str8. That puts you a mile ahead of anything he would min raise preflop.

    I don't like playing Q or K suited cards. You want to be the one playing the suited ace busting the suited queen or king for their stack.
    Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

    PF - Fold. Play only QTs or QJs from Button.

    As played......

    Flop, bet 2/3 pot. You have 9 outs to a flush, plus three other 9's to a gut inside str8, plus three Q's to a over pair. That's 15 outs. You're basically 1.8 to 1 to win the hand at showdown. Call the raise.

    Rest looks OK, but villian was bad to min-raise from the BB and you played horrible pre-flop.
