Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (2 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Hero (t3530)
BB Villain/ (t4470)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
Hero calls t100, BB Villain/ checks.

Flop: (t400) A/images/graemlins/club.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Villain checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t400</font>, Villain calls t400.

Turn: (t1200) 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Villain checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Villain raises to t2800</font>, Hero ?

Villain has been playing pretty conservatively. I've been beating up on him for the past several hands. He's folded most hands on the flop.

So here, I was surprised that he called my flop bet. He usually folded at this point. Then his big raise on the turn was another surprise.

If I fold, I'm still in ok shape with T2930 in chips. (I started HU with T1680 so this isn't awful.)

But can I really give him credit for a flush here?

Thanks,

I'm all-in here. Might be the wrong play, but I think it's more likely he's protecting a good A than fast-playing a good/great flush. If 7 of the 8 cards that have been dealt to the board and players are hearts, so be it. You win some, you lose some.

no way can you fold here.. if you get beaten, then so be it.

Don't fold this. He picked the wrong time to slowplay an A. Oh wait, you wouldn't have posted this if you had won. He must have had a higher flush this time. Yeah, you should have folded this given the results.

I beat trip aces. No way I'm laying down. My chips belong in the middle.
