I had a debate with MVP over IM about this hand. I know I really should have raised this preflop out of the blinds but I had clicked the check button and didnt change it in time. I like playing sets slow on a board like this, to me the way he bets the turn and river pretty much defines his hand, if he bets more on the river I probably call but betting $30 into a $45 pot screams pay off my flush. MVP said he would have raised the flop comments?
