yup

I would raise the flop a bit more there, and I am all in on the river no matter what...

I shove before I even see the river.

I deal with these coolers so much better when I read about them happening to other people.
Re-raise the flop bigger next time: you're only making them call $2.5 into a $8.6 pot. I suggest $7-$8 instead of $4. The rest can go in on the turn then.

I think you played the hand well... I would play it the same.... I mean he was drawing so thin and you just got done by a 4 outer? bad luck


Even if a Q or 7 falls on the river and you stack off to a rivered straight I don't think you can be too hard on yourself..... NL25 players are going to turn over AJ, KJ, 85... etc etc, often enough to make this river shove work out.
