Default Re: 5/10 Party, do I lay this down?

Raising 150 to 320 on the turn smells fishy to me. In my experience, barely making more than a min re-raise means weakness although a tricky player could throw you off. Looks to me like he misplayed a 4 post-flop. I have him on a 4 that didn't boat up, and he doesn't think you have the flush, or has convinced himself that you'll fold it.

I'll caveat that though with saying that I don't have that most of my experience is at 400/600 tables.

What i like to do here is sit on my hands until the time expires because it hurts me to fold even though i know i have to. So try that....

Depends how bad he is. I think you could throw hands like KJ with K of hearts, AJ, and a naked 4 into the mix. However, there are just too many hands that beat you here and I think you have to fold. Was this full ring?

What hands do you think you could be beating here? Everything villain's done so far seems to have been geared towards getting more and more money in this pot-he even checkraised when the flush card came. Easy fold.

I never knew being brave meant checking a flush to try keeping the pot small. If you're not going to get some money in on the turn when you hit your flush, you shouldn't be playing these hands in the first place and definitely not calling flop bets where you don't plan on extracting any chips. Between that and all the free cards that can hurt you, checking here is atrocious.

A normal player would be open raising with KQs or JJ, so that rules them out. Only an extremely loose player would be raising with J4..sooooooooooooted, so that would put a lunatic on J4ns.

Answering for FF, i'm pretty certain that he has. And i agree with his statement that checking the flush there would be pretty bad. And yes, i have played in that game as well.

A turn min-CR, in my experience, spells MASSIVE trouble. I've gotten unstacked often enough in that spot that I'm folding on the river.
