I'd raise or fold the flop to thin the field. Playing TPMK against 3 other players isn't exactly my cup of tea. After he calls your turn raise and pots the river when the flush comes I'm folding - even if he's crazy it's hard to see what you beat besides a bluff.

just to add, i contemplated the river call for like 30 seconds.

Id have to have a stellar read. Turn bet/call to a river overbet is usually not a good sign unless you know hes way bluffy.

Why not raise pre-flop??
Why not raise the flop??
I think it's weak. You're not taking advantage of position, and you're letting the flush draw for almost completely free.

well, since this post isnt getting too much attention. here are the results hidden.

i thought about it, hoped he had 9 10, and called.

Final Pot: $120.50
