UTG calls, <font color="666666">4 folds</font>, CO calls, Button calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, CO calls, Button calls.

Flop: (10 SB) 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>

Turn: (7.50 BB) 4/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, CO calls, Button folds.

Standard Operating Procedure

[AdamL]

Check-calling one bet is ok?

[Bigdaddydvo]

the flush guy messed up by raising. A simple call would have induced overcalls (including yours--which is correct for 1 bet)

[MAxx]

definitely

[Tosh]

I think you should have bet it.

I thought about that a bit, but it seemed thin enough to make a check call 1 bet an ok plan in my mind. A lead maybe superior. But I do think that if you check and it is bet and raised behind... you have a clear fold. Good point Tosh.
