This was a hand played yesterday in my usual casino. I didn't properly write this down, so this is a reconstruction from memory where some details will be off. Blinds are 2/4; all currencies in €.

I have :qh4: :10h4:  in the BN. The HJ limps, I make it 22. The BB and HJ both call.

Both of these players are quite weak; the BB in particular is someone I've never seen at the table. They clearly know some things about poker; they're not playing the game for the first time, but they probably haven't played live much, and they did limp from early position a bit earlier. I have a stack of about 600; the BB's stack is 284. I forgot the HJ's stack but it doesn't matter.

Flop comes :qc4: :9d4: :8c4:  (Pot = 68). The BB donks for 20. HJ folds and I call.

Turn comes :8h4: (Pot = 108). BB checks and I decide to bet 60. BB is visibly reluctant and seems close to folding, but then calls.

River comes :jc4:  (Pot = 228) and BB goes all-in for 182.

Weird hand all around. What do you do here? If you think it influences the decision, I also looked at Villain and was like "flush, huh?" and they've said nothing, looking stoically at the board.

[SPOILER]So the way villain played makes most sense with the flush, but I decided to call regardless because (a) I don't need to be right that often and who knows what any of this means; maybe they just have the ten (b) I did attribute some importance to the live reaction; if they had given a jokey response, I might have folded, and maybe (c) I had just lost a big hand a bit earlier. Villain had :as4: :js4: .[/SPOILER]
