I was being serious. Can I deduce from this that, in the absence of any evidence that this guy could be tryng it on, this is always an easy fold, or are you suggesting I shouldn't have folded? Subsequent to this hand the player was betting 10, 20, 30 BBs on many hands and was called down on 3 or 4 hands whre he went in behind but came out ahead.

reraise pre to 240, or if u wanna call pre and get muti way action (i have no idea why you would do that) then reraise on flop to 2k if he pushs in then call.
what hands do you think he could have?

Yeah. I realise I butchered the hand by playing it really weak. As it was early in the tourny and I hadnt seen him show anything down at that point I immediately put him on the flush when he bet on the lop and then again on the turn. I hated folding but I felt I had to respect his raise. Subsequently I saw that he was calling and raising very light and got very lucky several times.

He could have had a flush draw or a straight draw. Seeing how he played on later hands there was a good chance he didnt have the flush. I guess my question boils down to, in the absence of any reads should I have shoved on the turn?

Do you really think anyone double pot bets a made flush? They dont btw... he had a set, 2 pair or a nut flush draw + pair or something, maybe even top pair. You had outs even against a made flush... get it in!!!!!!!

Cowgomoo

Shove flop. As played call turn.

"Subsequent to this hand the player was betting 10, 20, 30 BBs on many hands and was called down on 3 or 4 hands whre he went in behindbut came out ahead."

This makes the decision even easier.

BlackFish3

Why wait to get it in on the turn? Get it in on the flop, you will have more equity against made flushes etc.

easy fold? good fold?  lool none of them mate, kinda bad really lol ....... i reckon u shudda popped it up pre-flop and isolate the original raiser, saves u alot of headache on the flop rather than tryin to play a 4 way pot with aces.............crazy fold on the turn lol

Thanks for the responses. Funny thing is I was convinced he had the made flush at the time and i didnt bother too much about folding (early iin the tourny and life on the line). But then it seemed to be a worse and worse decision as I saw him playing hands. He sucked out on me later when I had a set against his pair and he made a straight on the river (ending my tourny) but then he donked all his chips off not long after.

I wondered that myself at the time! I always do, never limp in. I was reading forum posts and called without thinking. Then he bet on the flop and I woke up, saw the 3 hearts and thought ****.
