Default Re: Who\'s afraid of the big bad flush?

How scared should I be of this card?

Don't be scared until your opponents give you a reason to be. You cannot play strong aggressive poker if you always fear the worst.

Flop and turn bet are both good and you certainly aren't folding to a raise on the turn. If one of your opponents raises the turn then there is a chance he has a flush but the pot is too big to fold. Even after a turn raise you are winning this pot fairly often and you have 4 extra outs to a boat.

Bet the river, no one has given you any reason to believe they have a flush and you have a very strong holding. Pay off a check/raise or a raise from UTG+2, folding here would be bad also.

Raise KQ preflop.

Edit: You'll get better responses if you do not include the results. They may bias the answers you get.
