Strength of a straight...

With QJ, I flopped the nut straight on an AKT board with 2 diamonds.
The turn brought a 3rd diamond.
The river brought another A (not a diamond).

Playing cash, 100bb deep, should I be prepared to go broke here?

    I play NL4 not sure what level you play at, have you got anymore information on the hand. Position, pot size etc? Would like to discuss for own experience. From what you've posted though, i wouldn't be going broke on this board.

    It totally depends on your opponant and how active you think he is and also on the action pre flop and during the hand.

    If you have the guy tagged as a total nit then it becomes a easy fold if he shows strength on a board like that but on the flip side of the coin if you have him tagged as a total maniac it becomes a easy all in/call.

    Playing cash, 100bb deep, Do i think worse than a straight on a 3-FLUSH, PAIRED board will pay-off/value bet here?
