Top 2 pair NL8 on paired, flushing board.

DrSharp

redknapp was fairly cally pre flop. Liked to have a look at the board before deciding whether he had a good hand or not.

Pre is standard. I raised flop to protect from any flush draws he may have, when he just calls thats what i think he may have. Turn bet was to tempt him in to coming along although it maybe should have been bigger, thoughts on this please.

River is where my main question is. With stacks as they are, am i auto shoving river, can i b/f river or happy to check it down on this board. FWIW i dont think he has a flush unless he has really slowplayed it. I am **** unlucky if he has trip 5's or a FH the way its played.

Thoughts please.

ship it on the river, if he has the flush/fh make a note, i think you get called by lots of 2 pair hands that you beat here.

Bet more on turn, shove river.

Overall though kind of amazed you need advice here as you have the nuts at this level.

More reassurance than anything. You know how i run at NL8 lol. Obviously when people keep flopping the world against me time after time i have to ask the question to find if its me or variance. Didnt want to moan on this thread but you dragged it out of me! :-)
