this was a scary hand for me and I know this guy's no clever trapper so I was 99% sure he'd reraise not giving me odds for the flush draw if he had AA or KK or trips. I also had tried to pull a couple unsuccessful bluffs off earlier. On this table I'm only up 250$ now.. lol. But I was hoping that he would think this was a desperate buy-the-pot attempt, and since he's a calling station. I took the chance. Was it smart?

ps, even though he's a calling station, he does bet out when he catches... so was this a smart move?

Posts 4 he never expected you to have pocket queens. however, with such raises i would've expected you to have A or K. i think you played this hand your own way (regardless of smart or not) and got him. that proves it was smart, cause if the guy's a calling station, you just exploited that weakness. nicely done =) I am my own worst enemy
