Default Yes/No?

10/20.
Normally, if I don't have a FD, I play the WA/WB game and call call donk, but here wiht the FD I thought it was best to cap and push value. Yes or no?

You either way ahead or slightly behind. I'd want to give KQ a chance to catch up. Donking the turn would be okay if an 8 or a 9 came up or a heart.

So if he 3bets you, you don't think it very likely that you're behind and you want to cap?

WA/WB seems good here considering it's benefits and if you're lucky enough to make you're flush, then you can try and get some more bets in.

You're actually slightly behind if you are behind, with 9 flush outs and 3 two pair outs, assuming you aren't already against two pair or a set. Even with 12 outs on the flop, it is slightly -EV to pump it. If you don't know if he has an A, then you can safely pump and hope he is on a K-high flush draw.

Wut? You don't want to give KQ a chance to catch a pair?

I don't know why you want to pump the flop, only hands that are giving you action are big aces or two pair/set type hands and you get to fold hands that you rather stay in.

Actually if I did not have the flush draw, I would check raise this. Now that you have such a strong hand, I think it might be best to bet-3bet. If he only calls your bet, he often improves to a second best hand he likes, and you will get further action from him. You have 82% equity against someone who raises with the top 20% of hands here.
