Default Re: Flopped a flush OOP 5/10

How is the $450? This is an awkward spot since the pot got too big for the board to pair this early. I'm afraid if I bet smaller, say $200-$250 he would come over the top which is something he's perfectly capable of doing with just the A .

Betting roughtly 1/2 the pot seems like a decent bet to me if you don't want him to draw out on you with the ace. But, if he has perceived you to be recklessly aggressive, he might call you whatever you bet.

Betting half the pot on the turn when a scare card comes out of position is practically begging a LAG to bluff-raise you here. The worry isn't whether villain will chase the nut flush. It's whether hero will have to make a decision for all his chips by the river with a J-high flush on a paired board.
