    Default HU flop 2 pair and all goes awry

    Big stack post flop stuff is normally nice and easy. Usually bets out when checked to.
    Blinds are 300/600/80
    Hero[3600] is BB
    Villain[8400] is Button

    Dealt to Hero
    Button calls 300, Hero checks.

    Flop[1360]
    Hero?

    I always like to play bottom two pair fast. I lead out for 1000 and see what he does - although if you are very confident he will bet here if you check then I guess checking (with the intention of raising AI) is OK too.

    Right well that's what I did, except he checked behind and then this card came on the turn



    WHat now? (I did say in the title that this was 2 pair gone awry)

    Ugh, this is the reason to play bottom two fast when there is a draw on board. That said, you have to lead for 1000, I don't give him credit for the flush (yet).

    Wow, It's like you played the hand.

    So I lead for 1000, and he smooth calls me. River is , I check, he bets 600.

    I'm paying him off right?

    I guess it was FPS to not bet that flop.

    HU, with reads sometimes it's a call. Although it's just the right-size bet to give you odds to call with a real hand...how do you feel about shoving over here?
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    I definitely call the river. No way am I folding two pair getting 6:1 pot odds even with a four-flush on board.

    I feel terrible about shoving over. Don't think I'm folding anything that beats me
