He had the flush, didn't he?

Did you have any read on BB going into the hand? If he's a rock, I'm probably folding, maniac, definately calling. But you knew that.

I think it is important to tell us the buy in for this tourney.

You're in a tough spot then.

What cards could Villian be holding here.

If he's a good player --

Flush
2 pair
club and a pair
Overpair

You're a big favorite to an over pair, coin flip (slight favorite?) Big underdog to anything else.

I think I probably call here, but I don't play at your stakes level, so it's an easier call for me.

he cold called 3bb after 1 other caller. pocket pair and suited connectors are a possibility.

i would have folded when he check/raised. it's lvl1 and you dont have a club. pick better spots

I think that I would play this hand the same way, but I would definitly not be happy about it

AA, I was thinking that his turn bet seemed a little heavy. I mean, if you had the flush here, wouldn't you want some action?

I've been agonizing over this play for an hour. I think I move in after the flop and if he's got it, he's got it.

The one reason I don't care for this move generally is because seeing just that one more card not being a club is mentally reassuring IF I plan to move in on the turn. Furthermore, it's a little more psychological for villain if he now knows he only has one chance to complete his flush.
