Thanks everyone just saw the little red button in the chat box finally. Never noticed it before.
Now I can't find the hand I wanted to show. Oh well I know better for the next horrible beat to show off.
Hit the nut straight on flop then guy hit runner runner for his Boat. Would have made me massive chip leader and on my way to victory instead ended up 5th out of the money by one spot : (
Oh well cashed in a 45 man .50 cent earlier and playing well ATM in 18 man 1.50 sitting 1st with 12 to go.
Good luck out there boys and girls
------------ Ended up 2nd place for 7.12$ !
Having some bad luck though most of the time. Was up 24 k to 6 k heads up and the guy hits trips on me twice out of three hands and grabs chip lead and I go card dead the rest of the way.
I'll take the 2nd place as it's a good showing but I should be the victor in this one.

You should always bet the flop - never check there....you need to charge them for drawing.
On the river there was no way to escape that - he would call you with a lot of weaker hands also (a lot of straight combinations, trips, etc... ) so it's a cooler Better luck next time

you dont always bet flop.... If flop is AAK and you have AK do you bet and scare oponents? But in this case, yup, he should bet flop because there is a str8 board, and probably someone has gutshot or open ended, so he must chare for next card But in this case even if you bet flop, you couldnt get away from it...
