10 High Flush On The River Facing A Bet
 

SB is 60/0 after 10 hands.

A couple of things here.

Do I bet on the flop here with 3 others in the pot?

What do I do on the river with someone betting into me.

bet the flop. there's almost never a good reason to not do a continuation bet, and this is a pretty good flop for you, even facing 3 callers.

call the river. only two cards beat you, and you are probably good around 15% of the time, so the pot odds justify.

Not betting that flop is a pretty big mistake. Why are you worried about the number of people in the pot? You have a made hand -- you should be betting if there was 1 other person or 9.

I'd probably just call the river.

You really need to bet this flop. I can't think of a reason to not bet this flop. calling river is fine. I'm slightly tempted to raise but I just really hate the idea of opening myself up to a 3-bet

Re: 10 High Flush On The River Facing A Bet
 

I think betting the flop makes sense to get more info? (granted, I've seen plenty of LAGs that would raise this flop w/ 64o to try to steal)

cdxx said there are only 2 cards that beat you, but there are also any 2 clubs, so I don't think a raise makes sense. If SB is a lag you almost have to call though, he might just be betting the scare card, and the pot is big.

I've won way too many big pots calling down super-lags w/ poor hands on scary boards... (maybe this is a leak though?)

interesting read on the board

Doh... Somehow I got into the short-handed forum by accident (I'm new here). [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Makes sense to not be worried about the flush as much in a short-handed game.

since you are new we can allow one more chance [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]- you do need to worry about the flush - however hero is 10 high so his primary concern is a higher flush (not any two clubs)
or a full house
