I'm still fiddling with limit. Obviously the win margins are very slim so I figure you have to get as many bets as possible when you're good.

I'm thinking I should def 4-bet the turn here. I had this raise as strong, and kinda called thinking "ffs he can't have the flush can he.." ... then the board paired so perhaps it's ok to shut down there?

Those stacks look JoeStrummer shallow imo.

Limit people always sit silly short.

I definately stick more in on the turn.  You've got the nut straight, and you're drawing to the nut flush.

I'm not sure how I'd play the river.  Probably shut down as well.

Definately 4-bet the turn looks like you missed a big bet, with the nut draw the 4-bet is even easier.

Opponent could have a various amount of hands by the turn two pair, set, straight or the made flush if you run like sh1t.
