Do you put BB on a flush or a King and fold here? Does my A/images/graemlins/club.gif nut flush draw give me enough cause to call or raise? SB was very loose but I didn't have a read at all on BB. What should I have done here?

Even if the BB has a flush or a K here you should call. You are getting the odds to draw to your nut flush. If he has the K you ahve to dodge the /images/graemlins/club.gif that will make him a full house, but you are still getting proper odds to call.

You have a guaranteed 9 outs for the nut flush, and probably 3 more for Aces with a decent kicker. That's around 1:4 odds and the pot is giving you 6.5:1. Absolutely call. No need to raise since you're still just on a draw.

[zram21]

Not to nitpick here, but you don't have 9 completely clean outs here. The 5, 7, or 8 of clubs puts a potential straight flush on the board. And if the opponent has a K then one of the remaining clubs likely makes his opponent a full house.

I really wouldn't discount the draw because of the potential straight flush, but subtracting an out for the potential full house certainly makes sense giving our hero 8 outs. Which he still only needs 4.75:1 to call. So obviosuly he should still call.

If BB has a K you have 8 outs. If he has a flush you have 7 outs. He might already have a boat, although pretty unlikely. I think you can probably call, but it's not the greatest spot in the world.

[Marquis]

I miscalculated. Definitely call.
