Another four-flush board post. 3-way river, and I have a set....

[balkii]

I have 66 UTG. I limp, 2 EP limpers behind me, sb completes, BB checks.

Flop 456 all hearts

2 checks to me I bet. EP and SB call

Turn K of hearts

sb checks I bet EP and SB call.

River offsuit A no boat for me.

sb Checks I .....

I would check behind here. If they were going to fold to the 4 flush they would have done it on the turn. The bigger question is what to do if EP bets after you check. I would make the crying call, but expect to be shown at least one flush. If EP bets and SB c/r I would fold.

In addition to Bugs' reasons to muck, I would fold if the sb calls.

IMO that becomes trickier and a tougher decision. I think I still call for 1 bet and closing the action. Also depends on my reads of the players involved.

Unless this is a very passive table or you are getting a lot of respect, I'd fold the 6-6 utg preflop. Easy way to avoid this problem.

But in this case, check it. If the last player bets after the check and gets called by the other player in the hand, I think you can safely fold.* If other player folds, I would call.

*My only reason to maybe make this crying call is the Ace falling on the river -- someone may be betting/calling their pair of aces.
