Ok, well saturday night, I headed down the front to play the £60 freezeout, 6,000 chips and a 30 minute clock. Anyway there has been some early action and wered about 20 minutes in and i was always battling with the button and we had both took about 2,000 chips of other players going the table... Mainly me having pocket 7's and hitting a back door flush to pocket kings...

But this is the main hand, that I dont know if I played right, I said at the table I was never getting away from it... but some people disagreed...

Im in the big blind (currently at 25/50) and 2 limpers, SB makes it up and I check with  9s,  8s....

The Flop Comes...  5d,  7s,  6h

Obviously at this point I have flopped the nuts and no flush draw on the table... I check in first position... to a raise of 200 (POT 400) to a fold and then a re raise of 600 (Pot 1000) I then re raise to 1500 and both players call... (POT 4,700)

Turn Comes...   9h

I then bet out 1600 and get a fold (Later claims pocket 4('s) and call... POT 7,900... Its obvious all the chips are going in and I have him covered by a 1000 EXACTLY... Anyway the river comes blank (No flush draw) and im guessing no one is re raising with a gutshot on the flop... having actually 3 outs (as I have one)

He turns over 8, 10 off suit... Now have I done wrong here, is he a fish? or am I a plank?

oh and 2nd hand he calls an all in from another player who's on Ace's after some flop raising and re raising and he calls with K, 5 off and wraps a straight around the 5... oh and the cards must of been running, he turned a straight flush after being pushed all in on the flop with a 6 high flush to a nut flush

Hardluck. I would lead out at the flop a lot. Also, given the way the flop played out I would bet much more than 1600 on the turn. But overall you are quite unlucky. Next hand.

yeah no need to trap them on a saturday night fishfest. i lead the flop.

Shhhh ffs, im getting fed up with good advice. CR flop, fold turn FTW!

just unlucky. hand plays out the same 99.9% regardless of your flop action. He's up and down on the flop and hits the nuts on the turn. Sick game.
