I intentionally didn't list the action as I wanted to see what everyone's suggestions were. V was first to act and lead out T600 on the flop. What should my play be now? Smooth call? Mini-raise? Push? Re-raise to T2400? T3600?

That's a mighty dangerous flop. You have a mighty good hand, though.

Hero flopped TPTK with a nut flush draw. What are you talking about?

Check-raising might be good...

Villain is UTG+1, Hero is MP1. How can hero check-raise?

Any, I don't want to sound mean. But please, please, get your facts together. This boards are already cluttered with senseless posts as it is.

Keep in mind if you check raise you get either 0 or 2 bets off of him. If you bet and he calls or raises you can three bet and get 3.

If you are sure he'll bet... MAYBE checkraise.

Still... if he might raise your bet then betting is better.

This is a NO-LIMIT tournament. You would think you would read the original post before replying.

you really should have given us his action as it sounded like he checked.
He bets 600, I make it around 3K, maybe 4K.
I am fine with any of his actions from there.

Going slow just gives him a chance to pick up something that beats you. That's a mighty dangerous flop. You have a mighty good hand, though.

Are you mad? Let's say our villain is holding A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], which would be the nuts on the flop. Our hero is still a 88% favorite to win the hand. This is the perfect hand to trap.

I call his bet. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the worst thing you could be against would be trip kings. His PF action doesn't match someone with pocket cowboys (or queens, for that matter), so I'm telling my self MHIVG right now. Stall for a while, call, and if he bets the turn, call again. Save the aggression for the river.

Did I misread this? I know you couldn't have possibly told him to fold this hand, or even consider it.

If you save the aggression for the river, you might get nothing out of him. If you are aggressive on the flop or the turn, he still has cards to come so he might call.

if it was a cash game I'd be trying to get them to change the rules to let me put more money on the table.

Actually I think the worst thing I could be up against after the flop would be AJ giving him the straight. Regardless of what he has, I'm not going to fold this hand with 8 outs for the nut flush, 2 more for the nut straight, and 1 for the royal. He's not showing AA, KK or QQ as his early play would have indicated a larger PF bet, or push to my reraise.
