Ok I know this guy had only 85 chips left. But lets say hypothetically they hads lots of chips. Would you call the 900 bet on the river with a possible straight flush out there, or are you raising everytime? How much?

I'm always re raising/pushing. The way the hand played out, no way he had TT. You gotta assume that's the perfect river for ya. Makes straights and flushes, but fills you up. This pot is yours 99% of the time.

Exactly. I'll be glad to state that I'm taking a 1 way ticket to busto town after that river. Doing anything but raising/re-raising in this situation is losing value.

Yeah, I thought as much, just needed confirmation. I thought the river was the best card for me, seen as I had the pegged as chasing either the strt or flush..

Agreed. I don't think I've ever folded an over-full house. Other houses, yes, but not an over-full.
