Optimal bet on a flush draw

[Paul Thomson]

What do you think is the optimal bet amount when betting a nut flush draw and first to act? with one opponent? with two opponents? Do you bet a flush draw into three people?

I have some thoughts on the subject but am curious to hear others members opinons first.

How long is a piece of string?

This is a bit of a vague question. Depends on a lot of things, opponents, whether it's a raised pot, etc etc.

Posting some hands may be a better method.

But, if you want a vague answer, 4/5 to full pot in all of the situations.

i dunno, it seems like a lot for just a draw... can we get a little more discussion on why people think this is optimal please?

Whether or not I bet a flush draw depends on alot of factors, BUT if I decide to bet it, I bet pot or very close to it just like I do If I have TP.

If I've got lots of people behind, I don't often bet unless the game is ultra passive. Someone behind you might raise and thin the field, and you want other people to toss money into the pot in case you hit it...if there are only on or two others, I'll make a 2/3-3/4 pot-sized bet. If I'm on tilt, $3582.76
