[Enzyme_]

Playing $200 Heads Up on laddies.

Chips are

Me 1900
Him 2100

blinds 100/200

I get  he raises 800 so i raise to 1200, he calls

and it flops
      

He checks i follow him

Turn

 

I push it all in he calls to show 

River comes with a 

I Dive out...

What do you think should i have raised more after flop?

I think you should've raised it to 1999. 

[Royal Flush]

Why dont you just move in pre flop, he is priced to call anyway.

he had played alot of suited low card early to catch flush on cheaps..

It's 100-200 now, you are re-raising to 1200, leaving 700 back. If he is calling the extra 600 he will call 1300.

If this is just an excuse for a bad beat story then just put 50p in the tin and tell it!

Nah it was a valid point where i went wrong end of day its all computer generated 1 second more or 1 second less or a bet or anything would have changed the output of the cards

Bad beat story? He hit quads!

[totalise]

why did you push all in on the turn? in poker you have to ask yourself two questions:

a) will I get worse hands calling

b) will I get better hands folding

well, what worse hand can he have that will call? QQ/JJ wont call, they only have an underful, which is certainly not enough to committ all the chips to.. AA? no chance, not with the paired board.. so you aren't getting a worse hand calling

How about a better hand folding? well, its probable that he has the royal flush, so you arent getting that to fold.. so the correct play here is to check and hope he bluffs at it with some weak hand, as you can only beat a bluff at this stage.

Also I see he made it 800 and you made it 1200 (with a big blind of 200).. this is too much.. you should re-raise to 850 straight and hope he doesn't go all in.. and if he does you can fold, because with the A10 clubs he has a huge draw.. quads TWICE, royal flush 1 way, straight flush 5 ways and 2pair 6 ways. ALl you have is one pair.
