Anybody thinks about laying this down?

[/ QUOTE ] Never. I'll give my stack to 77, TT, or quads every time, but you're going to see a flopped nut flush, straight, or overpair with a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] WAY more often than anything that beats you here.

I think that against this particular player, and the way the hand was played plus his EP PF raise, a nut flush is much more probable than the straight, and I don't see him flat calling the turn with an over pair with a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. That's why all that is left is pretty much TT, 77 or some nut flush combination. (or a complete bluff with a hand that didn't hit anything from beginning to end, but this is not very likely coming from this opponent).

Calling this looks pretty obvious, of course, but I'd like to think about the probabilites of different hands here.
