What do you think about it? Your articles say to always play made hands agressively, but it just didn't make sense in this case. I was so high ahead of anything that if someones hand improved, it would only benefit me (as it did). Even so, the other guy made a pretty big error when he called my bet on the turn, then I got lucky, and he completed his flush.
