seems none of you are able to let go of a great hand. so i'm not 100% certain I was beat, and sure if he was a generic player there would be a large chance of him not having me beat there, i have a problem with people saying this is a mistake.

a mistake is laying down a hand that CANNOT be beat. imho i was a 2:1 dog here if I push, and frankly if you push here only the flush will call so there isn't really fold equity.

having discussed this with an *actual* pro it seems the right play is to EITHER fold or call, more leaning to a call and seeing what happens on the turn. period, done!
