Hand 1:
I have
![The Ace of Clubs [Ac]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/Ac.gif)
Flop:
![The Queen of Clubs [Qc]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/Qc.gif)
Both check to me. Since my read is that my opponent bets when he likes his hand, I bet the pot, attempting to steal it. Opponent calls.
Turn is
![The Jack of Clubs [Jc]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/Jc.gif)
My opponent checks, I check, since I don't think I can make him fold.
River:
![The Four of Clubs [4c]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/4c.gif)
So now I have the nut flush, and my opponent bets $8 in a $25 pot. Do you call? I did, hoping to catch him with a straight, but he had quad Qs.
Hand 2:
I'm in EP with
![The Ace of Diamonds [Ad]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/Ad.gif)
Flop:
![The Ace of Spades [As]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/As.gif)
I bet the pot, opponent calls (other caller folds). At this point I put him on a big draw.
Turn:
![The Jack of Diamonds [Jd]](https://pofex.com/images/smilies/Jd.gif)
I decided to bet the pot again ($25). Opponent calls and is virtually allin.
River:[5s].
Check-check.
No surprise that I lost the hand. But it was a surprise how: my opponent had 3455, no spades.
Anyone try to play a smaller pot here, since there are so many cards that ruin your hand? If you're up against a player who has a big double suited wrap then you're an underdog here.
