The 3-flush straight game
This was my first orbit at the table, but the villain seemed to be rather loose and aggro preflop yet passive postflop, something I'm starting to see a lot of at Stars .50/1 for whatever reason.
PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (10 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is MP1 with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $0.50. CO posts a blind of $0.50. <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>. Flop: (7.50 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP3 calls. Turn: (4.75 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, MP3 checks. River: (4.75 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero... Final Pot: 5.75 BB Ten...Jack..Queen...where's the--oh yeah, King...hey I have a straight! Shame about the 3-flush board though. I'm not hugely scared of the flush since it's just one opponent, but if he doesn't have it he might fold to a bet, and it'd really hurt if he was slowplaying a flush and raised me here. Should I go ahead and bet out or check to possibly induce a bluff? While we're at it, should I have bet that flop? I'm finding my tendency to bet out if I raise preflop no matter the circumstance really hard to resist, and this doesn't seem like the greatest spot to do it in.

Re: The 3-flush straight game
Not betting the river would be like driving in the desert without water in your tires.
He's not going to play a flush like that. Bet.

Re: The 3-flush straight game
I like the flop bet. I've started betting in situations like this where I raised PF, the field is small, and I have a reasonable number of outs. (Maybe 5 or so here, if we don't already have the best hand.)
You have to bet the river. (Even though I've read the thread and villain folded.) You'd hate to have it checked through.
