Flushed Nut (cash)

BAD PLAY

I like mixing it up and I don't think a raise on the button with suited connectors is a bad thing as long as you don't do it that often. My mistake was on the turn when my opponent bet a dollar into the pot. At the time, I was feeling a little frustrated because my pocket aces were cracked a few hands earlier. I was playing timid, fearful of losing my stack. What I should have done was raise on the turn and make my opponent risk his stack to make his flush. Instead, I ended up letting him draw to a flush that I wrongly hoped would give me the best hand.
