Default Re: Nut flush draw on monochrome board: bet the flop or try to checkra

First, I really don't like limping UTG for almost 10% of your stack with KQ. Raise it up and try to steal the blinds or fold. I think if you want to play this hand it's for all your chips. In that case, I would check-raise. If you lead out, you might win the pot but you might also get raised and have to CALL off your chips on the draw. I much prefer checking and seeing if somebody will take a stab at the pot and then push. If they have an Ace they're calling you regardless but you might win a few more chips this way, and you still have plenty of folding equity. You're also representing slowplayed AA.
