    Readless I suppose we should fold and expect that most players wouldn't overshove here without the nuts. If he has a set or weak flush, does he really think that a shove can be called by worse? Probably not. I think we should assume that unknowns understand at least that much, until we see otherwise.

    Was the check-call on the turn merely for pot-control? It seems a raise here would be the best long-term strategy. You've got to assume at this stage you have the best hand most of the time and should probably raise for value.

    If you're checking back because you fear his min-raise on the flop means a better flush draw, it would seem that you must not be completely readless. Usually I would think a semi-bluff on the flop would be bigger than a min-raise unless my I had paticular history with the opponent.

    shouldn't you bet the turn? You don't want to see another club on the river. And if he then comes over the top you have to be thinking your flush is no good.

    C/r flop, as played I like the flat

    C/r turn

    Meh prob fold now. I be tempted to call as he open limped pre though, which puts less fds in flop raising range imo

    Yea,
    I called, he shows K9o and I scooped.

    Only checked river cause he pot bet turn so was figuring that he will bet more on river then I would of value bet. Dno if this is bad thinking in the long run though
