Value betting Ahigh

I think you have to raise this flop, especially since you're first to act after the bettor.

Not pushing an equity edge.

You're 2-1 to make the nut flush by the river with 4 (5?) Villans...how do you not have an equity edge? Somebody holding a ten has you beat at the moment, by why are we believing that anybody has a ten?

Won't clean up outs. Someone with A5 doens't have us reverse dominated since the board pair would counterfeit their 2 pair if an ace falls. I'm not giving myself any outs for pairing our 6.

Who wants to clean up outs? You're playing for the flush, here, you want JTo staying in with you.

Pot is smallish and raising might well take the pot right there with this field, or if not, you may get it when you're checked to on the turn and you bet.

If CO is a true maniac, we probably won't buy the button, might not get a free card, etc.

If he's a true maniac, get him HU and beat him like a tied-up dog.
