Quite normal hand, with the exeption of the river.Of cause he should have reraised here and bet bigger in the first place . But i guess he wanted to show down his Royal Flush.

Or straight flush ! enough to win. maybe he had 99d or K9d or 10 10 or AK not sure suited D or os. Your sound look like you lost Chartoule, or you trick me ? You smart make a trap, do you ?

Looks to me he was making slowplay with you and, unfortunately, things got reversed for him. That is the only explanation I found for him doing such thing in this hand. And I guess you can also understand that. If you think you are winning and you have an opponent betting in your place, what would you do? Let him bet, the pot is for me! Now imagine if he had TT… I guess you wouldn’t have come here to tell everyone about it, and it would have been very well played to make slowplay against you in the same!

I lost of course . Or maybe not. I will call/allin every reraise he do so lose only 1/2 stack aprox i think is a win.
As you say, guys, maybe he wanted to show his Royal.

Ha ha, "Making slowplay with you" That's an awesome way to put it. Makes it sound like he was trying to make sweet poker on you. lol.
Hey, it may seem unusual but the slowplay makes sense, he had the nut flush after all, the Royal was just icing. As for him calling you on the flop, not sure what your bet size was but he had two over cards and flush draw so if he thought you were bluffin, makes sense.

But even if he raised , you would have called him anyway , so he would still show his royal , maybe he wasn't paying attention , and didn't notice he had a royal flush ) , who knows , good for you he only called.
Yeah the hand is pretty normal untill the river. He slow played his AK suited pre flop then just called all the way after that. The guy probably didn't know he was slow playing though, he's obviously not an experienced player.
On the river though, at this point it's pretty obvious you have something raising to 35 BB, so he should've went all-in to try to maximize his value. But again, he has no experience and he doesn't know that he has the nuts (or what the nuts is)

That´s pretty much my guess seeing how the hand played out. I don´t think he completely realised what he was holding.
