$22: Playing a flush draw from the blinds

[Taraz]

Again, no idea. Can I afford to flat call? Is pushing terrible?

I think I'm gonna let that one go after the re-raise. I know odds are possibly just about there, but the K is going to make it horrible and you have two people interested in the pot, plus your flush is so crappy, 6 high, it's even possible someone is drawing to a higher one.

Seeing as you didn't, well, the turn is a horrible card. I think you have to push it and pray, but I don't expect to have much FE, as I suspect the SB is a total donk given his 2.4k stack already.

Two others in the pot, and your 15 "outs" are very far from the nuts. Fold.

Fold, SB either has 67 or 2 pair. Pushing is bad here because you will always get a call from a hand that has any chance of winning (it's getting about 2 to 1 on it's money) and SB has a large stack, so it'd call you with Kx/Flush draw/Straight draw + pair.

That's a good point about 67. I hadn't read the board properly. I fold the turn in this situation. But I'd have folded to the reraise on the flop anyways.

turn.... yikes. you've got a lot of outs. in answer to your question, no i don't think you can afford to flat call.

after flat calling, your stack would be at 550, with a pot of 820, which is why pushing is not "terrible." but i'm still folding... on the flop actually if possible.

Hero folds. Very strong chance of a big reraise from UTG+1. No guarantee that your "outs" are any good. You still have plenty of chips. I don't think it's all that close.
