Yes, I was thinking about the monster...... please don't berate me for being a little girly-man here, just answer me this: Is there anypoint where anyone slows down in a hand like this, where you have the nut flush, and the only hand(s) to beat you would be the straight flush?

I was loving your play until i read "Gomez22 calls" good god man!!! cap every street. If you lose to 4h5h, so be it, but go down in flames. 99% of the time you'll be good so get the money in there.

Gomez,
I never slow down on this..You have played enough Micro limit HE to know how some people play. My take is that if EP1 actually has the SF he would not raise the flop this way. He doesn't want to be raising people off thier hands. Fish love to slow play. Ram and Jam and if he does have SF tell him NH and move to the next.

The only time I wouldn't cap with the nut flush is if there was 4 to a straight flush on board (or of course, if the board was paired, and there was heavy action on previous streets). Even if there was 4 to a straight flush, I would usually 3-bet if raised, especially if it was something like 45 78x. But with 3 to a straight flush...I'd have to cap it up, especially in party poker 1/2. Heck, the guy could have had 45 with no hearts. I've seen it.
One thing I will say is that most players are extremely likely to chase gutshot/oe straight flush draws, in my experience. Even if you showed them KTs, I bet some players with the 4h would call you down all the way. It is pretty cool to make one.
