Crap...I sat here typing up a nice response and the browser shut down before I posted. I'll come back later to try again, but my short response for now is that I would have raised 3xBB PF and led the flop pot sized with TPTK. Will explain my reasoning later. Sorry.

 

[Irexes]

Raise more everywhere

 

[brutus]

after posting and lookin at it i started thinkin "dummy you shoulda put him all in after the flop" ....i pretty much asked for this with the mini raise didnt i...didnt really get any info and wasnt enough to chase him away from the hand....after the hand i told em nice catch and he said he had 20 outs and couldnt fold it

Not really sure what this means:

*** HOLE CARDS ***

Eeyore: calls 200

But we need to raise to 3-5 BBs preflop here, then bet the flop hard.

As played PF and post-flop, I just stick him in on the turn.

 

[mrsnake3695]

Raise preflop, other than that I don't think villian was going anywhere after the flop considering his stack size.

 

[ginNjuice]

The only way would be to raise PF and then push on the flop. Once he gets to the turn with that stack, blind level and such good draws nobody's going to fold. I would have even pushed in his spot once I saw a spade fall. Not much can be done about this once he decides to see a flop with J 8 and flops open ended and turns a flush draw.

 

[Lafaena]

Should probably raise preflop, if he pushes fold if the guys playing normaly if he dont push your pretty much doubling him up with that flop.

 

[Lafaena]

oh tought the blinds were 200/400 there, my bad.
guess you shoulndt overbet the flop. Had you raised preflop(3xbb) and he pushed youve dont have to had to call. another way out here i think would be to bet less on flop and make a good laydown. looks like your going to doulbe the guy up on this hand, tough situation.
