This is a 3 year old thread but I'll comment.
This player raised in early spot with a sub-par hand. Not an ideal play but maybe he has a read on the table. Its folded around to the BB who just flats. The flop doesn't help our aggressive raiser but the BB checked. He does the right thing in c-betting and again the BB just calls. The turn does give him the gut shot. BB again checks, thus we are allowed to take a free card. This works even more in the favor for our pre-flop raiser. We hit our gut shot and now the only thing is to get paid off. Which after a raising war we get all the chips in the middle. Exactly what we want. This hand worked out the way one would hope it would. I don't have any problem with the way he played it after the flop.

Absolutely. You better c-bet in this situation. Especially tournaments, where the blinds are constantly raising. You have to win pots any way you can to survive.

i dont think either of them played it bad. the guy who called after the flop he had a flush possible straight flush with a gutshot straight.
the only stupid thing he did was reraising after the river on a pair of tens but up till then he was fine
The guy who raised was only going on a c-bet.
how did either of them play it bad in your opinion?

My only objection for this hand is the initial open from the hero , he has approx 20bbs and he is shortstacked! I may did that open at least with QJs. The cbet is just fine and the sizing at 52% it's just ok for me, I assume he went with a bigger cbet due to the flush draw! they both check the turn and the dream came true on the river!I believe player 5 made the blocker bet in order to make the hero muck any 9x,7x hands or even any missed flush/straight draws.
I would go all in after the blocker bet if I were ''mega point in'' because flush draw is missed and I block Jx hands for a straight.

It's worth remembering that poker has a variety of moves to draw (including bluffs). The c-bet was valid because there was a pre-flop QJ raise and he tried to pull with an easy fold. The movement can not be reprehensible. There are players who do much worse!

Thanks for the ratings! Poker is a game that is played differently depending on the situations. Everyone should keep this in mind. I can say this to anyone who has responded negatively. Critics are welcome. For those who responded well, thanks again

Yeah! They must be players who always shoot allin. There it is illogical to have strategy and there is no skill in poker. Are killing the sport of mind. They are mixing casino with poker. Game is the same environment, but played different.
They do not understand that the game there are improvisations, bluffs and slow play to try to fool the opponent and pull the pot. I hit the river after being aggressive pre-flop and then I was happy. Nothing stupid about that.
