Last night, the poker gods showed me some river love on the penultimate hand of the session. I felt like I was due :-) I hit a flush on the river, and raked in a pot worth $46,931. Small potatoes by some standards, but very welcome to me, as a great way to end my slump. The reason that pot was as big as it was was because I bet into it every street, sensing the flush that was coming. That kind of betting pattern makes it harder for opponents to put you on a hand, so it's more likely you'll get called at the end, when you're making your biggest bet of the hand. I liken this to a surfer sensing the best wave before it actually shows itself; you have to take it on faith in the early going.
