.10/.25 full tilt rush.
I've not played in ages and figured I could do with some practice before the bash. I'm not sure I got this one right - what would you do?

This is an interesting hand. He has min-raised from UTG and you have called from the button. No problem with any of this so far, although he could have almost any two cards with that raise, really can't narrow his range much at all. He could have a big pair and be hoping for a reraise, he could just have two big cards like AQ or AJ or he could also have something like suited connectors here. Medium pairs could also go in his range. Really hard to narrow him down much.
After the flop we have a pot of $1.35 and he bets $0.75. This could be a continuation bet, your call is fine (you could raise here but you are I presume hoping to hit and win a big pot). We still don't know what he could have at this stage as basically we have seen a raise a continuation bet, even if they are a bit small.
Pot is now $2.85 and the turn misses our flush draw but brings the
. That does not complete anything. We face another bet of $1.25 and again call. At this point he has raised preflop and has made a couple of slightly weak continuation type bets. We have now built a pot of $5.35. At these stakes it suggests he has something of a hand. He could have caught the King on the turn I guess or he could have the flush draw. he could have raised the min with a small pair and made a set. He still might have a weak hand or air.
When the Ace hits the river you make the flush. He bets a third time. OK, I now think he has a hand. At this level you see c-bets on the flop all the time. You see quite a few double barrell bluffs but when they bet the third time it usually means they have the hand on the river. You can therefore afford to raise quite strongly.I probably make it about $12 there. After he goes allin. If I had to put him on a hand of some kind I believe he has something like 2 pair, a set or some kind of flush. The range is so wide that we can't put him on the nut flush. It was also our plan to win a big pot when we called on the flop - well now we have the chance. If he has the King high flush or some silly straight flush somehow then nothing we can do but he shoves with much worse here so its a pretty easy call.
