Another river bet sizing problem

edited November 2011 in The Poker Clinic
In hindsight knowing he had the nut flush it is easy to say shove all in, with his limp into the pot which gave me odds on the button to call with junk (before any comments on that) I put him on Dia connectors such as 78 maybe so I did not put him on a nut flush...... assuming we think he has a flush but not sure of how big, is my river bet in the ball park or should I still have shoved????

    I know you mention it but you dont have odds to come in on button IMO bud.  Admit it, playing the heater? :p

    I think I massively over bet here.  He is nearly always holding a flush or a better J, which he's going to be hard pressed to fold.

    Like your bet, but I think we can safely go for more.  If he's bluffing he folds to any standard river raise.

    £16 in there once you call, he has £31 back?  I dont hate a shove.  Or making it around £17.

    (But then again he does just flat you on river so he may have been wary.  But wary enough to fold?  Not sure)
