Got a straight flush today, if I could change the way I played it I would have bet less on turn. 300 looks scary. I had a straight flush a few days ago too.

Yep, i would have minbet on flop check on the turn, check on river i believe, i had a strflush too, and at least i played it very weak too, with a overpotsizebet . . to fake, but they didnt want to prove if im bluffing or not, but in your case ProStarAdam would make a move maybe.

You're right, min bet than check on turn would have been a great play. Check river too is good I think too cause ProStarAdam has enough chips to bluff.

I like suited connectors. I like to play small pots with them, maybe raise in late position. I often call from small blind with anything cause odds are too good to lay down unless if there was a raise b4 flop. I might limp in middle position with them, depends on chip stack and whos at the table.
------------ I think the reason I didn't bet on flop was because I wanted to out last the guy with 105 chips. Theres no prize for 4th place and if chip leader reraised me, I'd be in a tough spot.

I would not bet at all trying to make someone get his high pair or something, or to bluff on the river. No bet at all in the end you would still get the blinds and other players would think twice before raising your raise. Even those stats lots of players keep of eachother would signal them possible trap when you wouldnot bet.
