    Floppy, welcome to the forum ! I think you will find you get honest friendly advice here.

    Dont really like the preflop call, but some might. But that flop was too dangerous against 2 opponents. Yes he could have been on the flush draw, but as soon as he called your reraise, you should have guessed you were behind and given it up. When you got to the river you had the chance to check behind and were only going to be called by a better hand.

    Thanks for the advice, because he wasnt raising me on the turn i put him on AK or something like that, I'm not very good at reading people! But yeh i can see now why i should of just checked the river, I will learn eventually lol

    I think you can save the river bet......

    He's not calling with many hands that you can beat.

    I'd bet bigger on the turn though, and check behind the river

    As abve

    also wait for BB

    posting in the CO is actually fine at 9/10handed ring games afaik  raise bigger on the flop and bet bigger on turn

    think river is pretty close between betting and checking back w/o reads checkingback might be better so we atleast get to see his hand

    I actually hated calling that bet on the river, as what has been said is that two pairs did not look that appealing for me on that board either. P's I am a girl.

    I think you should always be calling the 3x BB with 10Js, nothing wrong there.  Its such a scary flop though, your three betting on a really dangerous board.  Think I go into check call mode after the flop, maybe even fold turn.  Izzy has raised the opener on the flop and pre.  He'd definately not jamming the river with 1 pair, and you cant beat any real two pairs or straight.

    Unpleasant though :p

    I agree with doh you took the lead on the flop and can find a nice check on the river, i like betting the turn like you did (as doh has already said i like to bet bigger on turn), it gets value from draws and gives you plenty of villian checks on the river.
