    I don't think I can lay down 2nd nuts here. Some donks like to play the nuts like this but...if he does have 56, he's caught me with the one hand he's taking my stack with.

    More info I failed to add:

    He had be on the table for ~30 minutes and not shown any aggression at all. Limping a lot pre-flop and one interesting hand where he called down with second nuts.

    All of his post-flop aggression rating was accumulated with and after this hand. But I cannot get PT to sort aggression by time of game...

    Don't you want more money in on the turn? You have a bike and the nut flush draw - your hand is most likely the best with a good chance to improve yet again - but you don't want the board to pair or something.

    Seems like you have to call here and win a nice pot against two-pair or trips. I doubt 56 is there though you pretty much have to pay it off I think...

    Sorry for the scrub question, but what does "20/2" mean?

    I've seen this convention at other sites used to describe players and I'd like to know what it means.
    Lukie: "Yo Fnord I was playing omaha earlier"
    Lukie: "I got dealt quads"
    Lukie: "but everyone folded to my raise "
    Lukie: "I was going to pwn everyone"
    Fnord: "Gotta slowplay them big hands man..."

    So the only potential benefit here of revealing their hand is that you will see it as a double bluff, call and lose. Seems a bit of a risk, especially as you've shown strength and probably would only fold to the nuts in any case.

    Having said that, the turn bet fits having 56 and wanting to push out the flush draw. This is a very tricky one.

    I would call this. However, I almost feel like the reason you posted this was because he actually had the nuts. However, I think this is a hand, esp in 6max, you can't get away from. I think he misplayed a set and needs to take his punishment.

    lol. fine. looks like what really happened was he picked up a spade draw on the turn, made you fold to his cracked hand with the river bluff...and showed you. and you just wanted some validation for your fold!

    Nah, he didn't show me anything... I did fold though but felt pretty weak about it so wanted to see what the consensus was.
