Hero calls $15
I think this is probably a stupid lead on my part. I think, given the action, I have to put him on 2 pair or a set on the turn. I didn't raise NEARLY enough on the turn, but I was putting him on a weak pair (or I'm freerolling with him holding a 4) since he's in the BB. What I should have considered is: is he ever flatting the raise with a 4 on the turn? Also, are 1 pair hands (perhaps overpairs may) flatting the 4 straight raised board?

Also, as to the river, is he ever raising with less than a boat or a 4 on the river with a 4 straight board? I cost myself quite a bit of money leading the river, but I wanted value since he called the turn (i.e. I didn't want him to check behind).
Costly lesson...

Final Pot: $80.00
Hero mucks 4c Kc
BB shows 6d 3c (a full house, Sixes full of Threes)
BB wins $77.00
(Rake: $3.00)
