What do you do now?

Re: And the next move is?
 

i call and raise him on a non-club turn.

Re: And the next move is?
 

Read dependent, but I push ... maybe just call and hope a 4th club doesn't hit. But you played your J/10 suited to hit a flush or a straight and you a flush.

Re: And the next move is?
 

I re-raise to about 6k. I don't think a bigger flush raises this flop, and you don't want to give a higher club a cheap chance to outdraw you. A lot of people slowplay here, but I prefer to play the hand hard and fast.

reraising him here i think is bad, it screams flush and you very well may only get money out of better flushes. The club doesnt hit the turn like 85%+ of the time, and he's OOP so he'll bet into you again.

yea both the obnly hand that may call you after a 6K raises is a higher flush,you frighten off lower hands,
would a set call down here?

Re: And the next move is?
 

you'll probably get money out of a set w/ the flop reraise, cause people cant fold sets, but you'll get that money on the turn anyhow, and worse hands donate money on the turn, taht wouldnt give any on the flop.

Re: And the next move is?
 

Maybe this is a leak in my game, but in my experience a lot of players won't believe you'd re-raise with a flush, and would expect you to take the standard line of calling the flop raise and raising the turn. I've been played back at a lot here with hands as weak as TP/TK, but maybe that's just me, or maybe I'm remembering it wrong.

I used to take the standard call flop, raise turn line, but judging from the stack sizes in your example vs the BB I'm guessing you're playing a rebuy, and I'm guessing it's right after the break. I'm not against calling the flop, but I think you can extract more here in this particular situation using a non-standard line.

But wouldn't he be quicker to call all-in with Ac7, Ac6, 8c8 or something like that on the flop then he would on the turn? Hero lead out on the flop and it looks to me like villain is assuming that means Hero isn't holding clubs and would thus put it all in the middle.

OOP like this I probably push the flop. But what do I know? Listen to Exit.

I really like the Hero lead out at the flop btw, though I probably would have bet just a little less (the size of a standard cont. bet), not that it seemed to matter in this particualr instance.
