Representation with Isolation

[blumpkin22]

Here's an advanced play I thought I'd write about to see what people think. Suppose you complete after someone limped in with a low card up, you have a 3-flush with the Ace up, and someone with a King up calls. Suppose further that on fourth street the boards read

you bet, the King calls, and the third player now raises. If you believe the third player's most likely hand is a 4-flush (and it usually is), I think the a good play is to go ahead and make it 3-bets. This will normally fold the King even if he has a pair of Kings. The play may even be correct even if you don't catch a pair on fourth street.
