Fantasy straight flush hand
 

Big tournament, WPT or WSOP. It's the first 15 minutes of action and you have 89c in the big blind. There are 4 limpers and you check.

Flop comes Tc, Qc, Jc. SB checks, you check, utg bets pot size, everyone else folds and you call. Turn is a rag, 2d. You check, villain fires out pot sized bet, you hollywood it up and go into the tank, then decide to just call in hopes of getting all your money in on the river. The river is the worst card in the deck for you - the Kc. Villain checks, and you fire out a large bet in an attempt to take it down right there. Villain immediatly comes back at you and pushes all-in.

Your move?

i call because im getting 3000:1 pot odds.

thanks for the details.

yeah, this question is pointless without bet sizes and stack sizes

Re: Fantasy straight flush hand
 

why would you bet big on the river if at all. would the fourth nuts(best hand villian could have that you beat) pay anything off, let alone a huge bet?

I have actually had this exact hand happen in a $100 tourney. Fortunately, when I checked, my opponent went all-in on the flop. Nobody would ever do that with a royal, so I insta-called him. He had JJ for the set. The turn was the damn Kc, and all I could think was "no ace of clubs, I dont want to have to chop the pot with my first Royal"

In the end this hand is no different than having the king of a suit on a four flush board. The fact that you have a straight flush doesn't matter. Your opponent only needs one card to beat you, and the fact that that card would give him a royal flush does not change the probability of him having that card.
