    Default was this bad?

    my thinking here was that villan (not enough hands and no reads yet)would do this with AA, AK, KK, KQ. and if he did have the flush im not exactly drawing dead. so bad call or no?

    This hand was played fine. Reload.

    Most of the time you won't run into flushies here. A bet like this on an sooted board is usually a hand that's drawing, or a hand that doesn't want you drawing to the nut flush.


    EDIT: Or it's a hand like AdKx. Either way you're ahead here more often than not. For the times you're behind you're still 30% or whatever to hit your FH on turn/river.
