I know it looks bad, but check/raising this small pot on the end is arguably the right play (although we have no idea of his intentions).

You do realize he flopped the nuts, right?

Now if Party offered a sizable Royal Flush bonus this might be a different story.

Huh?

Huh what? He flopped a flush, is holding a King with the Ace on the board, it's not paired and no one could have a straight flush because he holds one of the cards that could complete it. He has the nuts on the flop. And the turn.

If you're referring to the second part, some casinos have a bonus if you make a Royal Flush; Party used to have one to the tune of $125 from what I'm told. Turns out he's a 1 in 23.5 dog to make his Royal by the river, so if he doesn't think he can pull 5+ BB from his opponents by the river it would actually be worth taking two free cards to go for it.

This is all theoretical of course, since there's no longer a RF bonus at Party.
