Default Re: Flop the nut straight - Merry Christmas!

If you have a read on UTG that he plays normally/reasonably preflop, I think you can safely...

3bet the turn. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have a flush. If he does have one, the only kind I can imagine is a Royal because the weakest hand I can imagine him LRR'g preflop is ATs.

More likely he has AA or AK with a club for the made straight thats now chopping with you and a Royal Flush draw. He might cap the turn with that.

KK or QQ for a flopped set seems possible also. He probably won't cap the turn with that.

Since the river is a non club that didn't pair the board, I'd three bet. I'm pretty sure worst that will happen to you is a chop.
