I consider folding. He's not bluffing you after you cap the turn and lead the river. And if he can't beat a straight, he knows he's not winning. Ya, I think I fold.

Folding is terrible. You don't have to be good very often to make calling correct.

Your river play was awfully strong against a flush board. Are you sure you would get this much action from this player when he doesn't have the flush?

When I have the 2nd or 3rd nut hand, I want to extract as much as I can from my opponents, however, I do not want to be gambling with more of my money than they would, when they are in the same situation as I.
In other words, would your opponent cap it on the turn with any set, when the board makes a str8 & flush possible? If not, you definitely overplayed your hand.

My above post refers to his turn play, not the river.

I bet, he raises. Threebet or call? I don't consider folding.

I call. If you raised in early position and he 3-bet you then I would 3-bet the river against most opponents, because you would only be worried about 1 hand - AcKc. Since you raised in steal position, he can 3-bet with a lot of Axs/Kxs hands here, and since you will always get 4-bet when he has the flush, you have to be good more often than 50% to 3-bet.

I'd have to be good over 33.3% of the time with this logic.

Interestingly enough, if for some odd reason my (potential) river 3-bet was a cap (i.e. 3 bets = cap), then I would probably have 3bet.

But I just called. I guess that means I thought I was ahead less than 33% of the time, but more than 7%)

Wouldn't you have to be good > 66% of the time?

Well, he might have pocket aces, queens, or jacks, but he might fold those if you 3-bet. Since you opened in last position, he might have Ac-xc or Kc-Tc or even another K-T. I think I just call.

BTW, I assume you meant you considered folding but rejected the idea.
