This is from a 50 + 5 at party.
Q: I am check raised on a heart board, with black Aces in my hand. fold, call, or move in?
My reasoning for going over the top: If he had a flush its not likely he would check raise. More likely he has a flush draw or perhaps top pair / overpair. I am probably ahead on the flop so I gave him a price to draw.
I thought about calling and moving in on the turn if a flush card doesnt hit, but I totaly reject that play:
My hand is not likely to improve, while his hand probably has more outs to become the best hand. other than that, I can win it right there pushing.
