    Default What am I supposed to do here?

    Should I have bet more? My turn bet was small because I was trying to induce a raise. At the time I'm not sure what I was expecting from villain. Was this board just too scary for him to do anything other than flat call?

    How would you have played this?

    Other than betting a bit more on each street - half a pot at least, most people with good draws will call that - you could have pushed on the river. There's a strong chance any ace would call any bet here despite the flush on the board.
