The flop was bad, J72 rainbow. checks around. The turn was a 3, gave me a flush draw. Checked to me. I felt I could steal this. I threw in 1,000 and the guy behind me went all in for 2,500. Everyone else folded. I had to decide why this guy would play this way.

I seriously considered folding, but I kinda felt I was pot commited, so I was debating. I picked up a good read (Thank you Caro's book of tells) so I called. He turned over KQo and I won on a high card Ace. This falls into my new motto, "When I do it, it's skill. When you do it, it's luck."
