I don't check-fold the river. I DO check-call the river.

Induced bluffs, yada yada... only flush calls a bet... yada yada...

Re: a set for the hero 3-flush
 

i think i'd overbet this flop and fold to a rr.

would be cautious the rest of the way.

I've never understood the "overbet monotone board with trips" line. This basically gaurantees that no one is going to make an incorrect call with the Ah and gaurantees that you'll only be called by a flush.

Re: a set for the hero 3-flush
 

I like the overbet on either the flop or the turn. Any rr in return, and I would fold. With 2 cold callers each step with your betting out, I think a good possiblity of a flush is present. Considering there wasnt any preflop raising.

Without the overbet in this hand, you dont quite no where you stand. With an overbet, you probably would only get 1 caller (if any), and this would help you in your future decisions on each street, since you would know exactly how much you could win or lose.

What hands do you think would call you on the river when you bet $20 and the board looks like it does in this hand. Do you think someone will call you if they do not beat your hand? Check and call a raise...

Yeahh please explain it to me too..

And why fold if reraised? Would not a maid flushhand only call to make more money? And if he reraise and he really have the flush then you have alot of outs to improve to a full house with good implied odds against a flush... When I think about this 2 things then I probably would call a rerais on the flop.
