Folding TPGK
 
SB is TAG, UTG is LAG. Anyone fold or just call this flop? Calling didn't make much sense to me, as I would have no idea where I stand. Folding seemed possible considering the equity deficit I have from the flush out there, and the fact that SB capped preflop.

Re: Folding TPGK
 
The turn fold is super standard after UTG calls the 4-flush board.

The flop action is a little trickier; I personally like a call. Over a quarter of the deck can change your equity dramatically, so I think you'd like to wait for a brick to fall before you give serious action. You can also see if SB is willing to 3-bet this board out of position - that can give you an idea about where you are without raising. Raising to find out where you stand is expensive and not necessary here since you're probably in a slightly ahead/way behind situation.

I'd say it's close between calling and folding the flop, but getting 8:1 I just can't fold yet.
