This is all rational, right? Big pot, not worth worrying about reverse domination?

[Alobar]

I fold the turn. You prolly dont even have 3 clean outs.

[bisonbison]

Al,

I think that closing the action here with just a Q and a backdoor flush draw on the board, it's not a bad call.

Anybody else?

[Evan]

I think there's enough people in this pot that reverse domination is a real concern.

[jacki]

anybody raise the flop to try to get a free river card?

[Joe Tall]

Routine. Raise the river when you hit your over.

What if the river is a spade?

Call is not bad because pot is big but if your A or K is dead and a flush draw is out. You might only have 2 clean outs but again you could have all six outs, not to mention if the bettor has a set in which case you are drawing dead. I usually lean towards calling here because pot is big but I have been drawing dead so often that I dont know if it is worth it.

The spade keeps you from being 3bet by 2pair or a set.

That is horrible logic b/c that means you are raising and still losing, and if it were three bet you would fold anyways.

[Eihli]

No, it means the times you are ahead you win 2 and the times you are behind you win 2. And since you'll be ahead here more often than not, you win more than if you just called.

Fear not the runner-runner flush.
