nut flush hand from Stars $10 rebuy
No solid read, but I suspect opponent is decent (i.e. above average for $10 rebuy)
Blinds 1000/2000/a100 2 folds, MP limp (61K), fold, Hero calls with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (75K), fold, SB completes (51K), BB checks (131K). Flop: K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (Pot=8800) Check, monster BB minbets 2000, MP raises to 9999, Hero calls, blinds fold. Turn: Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (Pot~32,798) Check, check. River: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] MP leads for 12K. He has ~37K behind. Hero has ~62K. What should hero do? Why? Comments on earlier streets also welcome. Thanks, Che |

Re: nut flush hand from Stars $10 rebuy
I probably just call here. If he is somewhat insightful he probably realizes there is a decent chance you have a flush draw on the flop.
Checking the turn would be consistent with pocket sixes if he suspects you made your flush. His river bet also makes a full house look possible as he would expect you to reraise if you did make your flush and then he could push in the remainder of his stack. |

Re: nut flush hand from Stars $10 rebuy
Ugh, I hate catching a flush with a card that pairs the board. I think you're ahead most of the time, here. The only hands you're really worried about are 66 and kq. QQ and KK are unlikely because he limped, and Q6 and Q2 are unlikely unless he's a total donk.
Best cases are TPTK (maybe with a spade), a lower flush, or something like QJ. All are possible. He probably only calls a push with the second two. EDIT: Whoops, misread the hand. With him leading out, I push. I think you're ahead more often than you're behind here. |

Re: nut flush hand from Stars $10 rebuy
weird check on the turn. What do you make of the monsterBB's minbet on the flop? is it likely that he's simply isolating this weak bet? Was the monster BB doing this often?
I'm torn between just calling, minraising, and pushing.. |

[/ QUOTE ] Monster BB was making a lot of weak flop bets (and they were +EV on FE alone). Since I gave MP credit for being at least semi-intelligent, I couldn't narrow his range much on the flop since he would probably raise with a set/two-pair to charge the draws while also raising with air to punish the big stack's lagginess - maybe not always raising with air due to my presence in the hand, but I had to consider it. |

Re: nut flush hand from Stars $10 rebuy
I just call, he could have 66 or possibly KQ with the raise on the flop trying to push out any draws, then slowing down on the turn could me he is trying ot trap with the full house. I don't like a push because if you get a call, there's a good chance it is the full house. If you call and do lose, you still have 25bb and plenty of room to work

Also, keeps the pot small if the river pairs (or trips) the board, but the bluff inducement is by far the more important factor IMHO. |

Re: nut flush hand from Stars $10 rebuy
i am torn between making it 24 or calling. You are not ahead of many hands (ak, smaller flush) and even fewer that call all in. I lean towards call just because i will be sick when he rr me all in.
