    Iv had difficulty in posting the screen shot of the hand so will try and explain it..

    My hole cards pre flop AS JS i raise 3 times the blind to £1.50

    I am then reraies by the Button upto £5.50 which i call to see the flop.

    the flop comes down QC 9S 10S  i have a nut flush draw and a possible nut straight draw..

    I bet maybe to low, a bet of £2,  i am then reraised which puts me all in so considering my draws i call and lose to J9 diamonds  with pair of nines..

    Apart from my flop bet beeing weak, maybe i shoudl of reraised  pre flop..?

    should i of folded on the flop with the draws i had.?

    Im guessing your short stacked then for him to shove on you, i think you have to call depending how much you have back.

    I'm snapping it off to be fair.  What hand is your opponent repping here on that board?

    Worst case scenario he has JK, your still close to 40%

    Your statistically beating a set.

    Bet size is likely a draw.

    preflop is probably marginal to bad without any reads (calling the reraise that is)
    flop i would either lead bigger or c/heck raise  with intention of getting it in

    yeah i dnt like the call pre OOP, flip it around and i dnt hate it as much, as long as u can outplay oppo on some flops

    whats ur reasoning behind leadin so small, what is £2 in2 ~£11 going to acheive?

    flop u have 2 get monies in, i prefer a c/r, n u prob av a small amount of fold equity

    thanks for the info and replies, 

    with out doubt i think i played the hand badly, my bet size both pre flop and on the flop was wrong,  in reality actually making the call with all the outs i had im 95% certain in my own head it was right and  perhapps most people would call it 9 out of 10 times.  it wasnt like i had 100% of my bankroll in play..

    As Js

    Flop Qc 9s 10s  (QQQ - 999 - 101010)

    Four 8's Four K's 6 flush cards (Ks 8s Qs deducted) 14 x 2.2 x 2 = 68%

    Even shaving off 2 outs your a coinflip

    download pokerstove and run some hands through it, you will find that the 4x rule becomes pretty inaccurate at 10+ outs

    I probably better had bud.

    I looked into this after you mentioned it before.  I'm not a huge online player these days and dont use it.

    Thing I have to say is that I know most poker % (or think I know them) by wrote.  Any time you see a % hand in any WSOP or EPT event the hand % are exactly where they ought to be from my understanding, 10+ or nay.

    So does pokerstove supercede these, being more accurate overall?
