Did you mean your preflop raise or your raise on the river?

My first thoughts here are that there are a lot of chips at your table.
So that may have a bearing on the size of your raise also.
We don't know how the table has been playing to standard raises.

After your raise you get too many players in the hand and a bad flop.
Not nice.

On the river I'd think it most likely that the opponent is playing 2 pair, a J or a lower flush. How much will he call?

Just my thoughts, but I'm losing a lot at the moment and it's disturbing me

I'm kinda curious.. What did he have? It shows he mucked but if I anot mistaken if you scroll all the way down it will show you what he mucked if he stayed in the hand with you.
