i really think i messed this hand up!?
i think you can even pitch it of vs. a midstack? after i called and he only bets so small i just called on the turn be hand get a lot stronger but after he bets this big i don't thought he would fold to a cr/ai very often but till i got million outs i shouldn't care to much about it?i felt kinda fishy jsut calling the turn...
on the river i hit and just put it in till he get good odds to call and don't want to see a cb...
your line on every street here?

The mistake in the hand was calling preflop. Villian, who is probably bad given his stack size and reraise size, is still showing a lot of strength by 3-betting an UTG raiser. His stack is too small for the implied odds of sucking out on a big hand and flopping one-pair type of hands is going to get us in all kinds of trouble.

Postflop you played it fine. I think he has a good hand too much on the turn to check-raise all in -- you're never folding better and only protecting your hand against getting sucked out/getting bluffed off on the river if you miss.

The river is a must shove.. given how villian looks he's calling that shove with pretty much any made hand he decided to bet like this.
