    Default Flopped nuts scary river.

    Villain here is a 16/9 seminit. He tries to make plays regularly with SC were he hits med pair. I know the flop call is bad, I didn't raise here because I was trying to trap money in this pot was certain that a raise was coming on this table.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button ($93)
    SB ($240.50)
    Hero ($100.40)
    UTG ($177)
    MP ($28.30)
    CO ($212.95)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 5, 4.
    UTG calls $1, MP calls $1, CO calls $1, Button calls $1, SB completes, Hero checks.

    Flop: ($6) 6, 2, 3 (6 players)
    SB bets $4, Hero calls $4, UTG calls $4, MP folds, CO folds, Button folds.

    Turn: ($18) J (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $15, UTG folds, SB calls $15.

    River: ($48) Q (2 players)
    SB bets $220.5 (All-In), Hero ???

    Your place or my place
    Clearly looks like the flush. I see no way you can call. You have to raise that flop or make a bigger play on the turn and hope he's slow playing a set.

    /this advice valid all the way up to buying in for $10 at 25NL.

    yea, fold the river. it sucks but you only beat a bluff, which seems unlikely given the huge overbet.

    also I don't get why you expect a raise behind on the flop. was the table ultra aggro? it's not like there's a pfr to check to, and it is not a flop likely to hit limpers significantally (if it does, they are likely calling your raise anyway).

    Easy fold.

    I think your hand is way too strong to just call the flop bet since the flop action will define how big this pot is going to get and you want to be playing a very big pot on the turn and river.

    calling the flop isn't as bad as it looks.....he has 4 people behind him that might put a raise in

    I had 2 aggros behind me and with such a low flop I was sure any overpair or any 2 overs would raise.

    I still think a raise on the flop is mandatory. I raise to like 15.
