Default Re: Following your gut

I think the possible flush draw is only a side note to this hand, since villain will only be holding 2 clubs about 5% of the time. Is your line the same if the flop is rainbow? Does it favor check or push more?

I am not saying your line is wrong, but I have a couple of issues with it:
First of all, I have a hard time giving a free card by checking here. Next, the push is just begging to be called by almost any hand, and some of those might fold to a more 'traditional' bet. Last, it's not like hero can't use the 410 he has left if he choses to fold to the check-raise, that's almost the value of half a tournament.

Hope to hear more thoughts and elaborations.
