Default Re: Hmmm Flush Draw hand

i think this is a really interesting spot. if he could hold (and fold) 98s here, i'd raise.

his flop play is not a pot building move by a set, but a protection move by a vulnerable hand. so we're likely looking at KQs/KJs type hands or 98s/T8s/87s type hands that could cold-call PF.

the turn bet sure looks like a free card prevention bet.. likely with the intent to bet-fold. a K won't fold, but will have a hard time 3-betting us. the pot is big, lets win it.

the only thing that gets me is the flop was rainbow uncoordinated.. the turn bet kinda surprises me.

My thoughts exactly after I actually read the flop action. He has either a middle pair or a K. A middle pair might fold to a raise, he doesn't have AK given PF action, and KQ/KJ are not easy 3-bets for him to make.
