Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6216137, member: 305911"] Pre flop sizing is good. I like betting the flop here as there is worse that will call you. Two spades will call, Ax will call, Qx might call and smaller pocket pairs that villain did not 3 bet pre with might call. Checking gives a free card to a spade which if it came on the turn could either be your demise or could slow action down so I think betting is best and would go either 6 or 7 cents. On the turn I would have bet again if I bet on the flop, as played Im glad you bet but would have gone larger than 5 cents. Villain now is calling or folding to most bets so 5 cents should get called just as often as 7 cents here so might as well go a little bigger. After we get raised I am thinking about whether I would want to go with this hand or not. There are two draws now so those could be what is behind the raise, could just be a "I think your bet is garbage" raise or it could be a weird A9, Q9, 99 situation. I lean towards we are still ahead here since I think 33 raises on the flop with two spades out there. I like re raising here and going from there. I could also see though calling and then bluff catching river but if villain is on a draw I think they bet when they hit and check and when they miss so bluff catching would not be good there. We could be betting right into it but I like being aggressive with top two pair on a double suited board and putting in the re raise as you did. I think that is the sizing I would choose as well and then obviously from there I am ready to get it in. I hate the river being a diamond so at this point I would feel like I cant get better hands to fold and the worse hands will fold since the flush came in. I like checking the river as you did which is a little weird to do there given we just re raised turn but I like checking there. Its a rough spot if villain jams behind giving us 2.43 to 1 so we have to be good about 30% of the time. Not sure villain would do this with something worse than top 2 pair 30% of the time. Much easier hand if the river card would have cooperated but villain checked behind making it easier on you. [/QUOTE]
