Re: King high flush...
Preflop: Fold this. It's not the worst call in the world, but the only way this hand usually wins is with a flush, and you really need two ways to win to play a hand.
Flop: Raise it up! You have a 2:1 shot at hitting your flush on the turn or river, and therefore you should raise if you can lock at least 2 people into calling the raise. UTG, UTG+1, and CO have already paid 1 - they'll pay 2.
Turn: Raise it up! Yes, A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] has the correct pot odds to see the river, but there is an extremely good chance you have the best hand and you want to charge that A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] to see it. To put it another way, if you're not raising here, when are you raising?
River: You have to call it down, but you don't have to like it. BB probably has the A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and CO probably had something like a J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
