Freakin ridiculous hand.

[pantherhound]

This is the story of my last couple of days. No read, 1st hand on the table. Just wanted to raise out those pesky flush draws with no chances taken- and the guy flat calls me. I basically don't know what the hell to do from there on out. Do I just have to call the river when faced with such illogical play? Edit: He probably has the flush, but do I ignore his inability to comprehend pot odds by juicing the turn, or do I interpret some unstandard play with a set so just check or???

Bet the turn.

Bet the turn.

I thought so, but is there any logic in putting him on a set here? My raise doesn't exactly scream flushdraw so he doesn't need to be bothered about that. Should I be risking my entire stack here on the turn?

At some point you just have to be ok with maybe putting in money with what might be the second best hand. Where you draw that line is up to you. Some people here aren't happy without at least bottom set or the 3rd nut. I'm a bit more of a GAMB00Ler and get shown so much shit at showdown that I'm ok with that.

Anyway, there are quite a few draws out there, so my plan is to bet/fold the turn and check behind on the river.
