Villain is solid but tricky after the flop and can play some strange things preflop. I'm curious about how people play the flop and the turn. Does anyone just fold the flop? Certainly this is a very bad reverse-implied-odds type of situation, and I could go broke against a flopped flush if no other spades come. Does anyone raise the turn? His small bet on the turn could be a feeler (Villain is tricky postflop) to see if I have the flush, and when I just call it tells him I don't, or maybe it's just a little milking bet.
