The checkraise on the flop looks a bit suspicious but I am ahead of everything except 44, QQ. I think QQ would re-raise preflop so that only leaves 44 ahead whereas I think any two pair hand or Qx hand would get aggressive too.
Am I right to get the money in as fast as possible?
Even with the third spade on the turn?
(I felt if he had two spades I had given him bad enough odds on the flop)
Spoiler: (Highlight to see)
I think it was just unlucky he had 44 but I was wondering if there was any obvious sign that he had me so that I could avoid this situation.
