Questions about TOP

[fulltilt]

In TOP it says that if you hold lets say AhKh and the flop comes for example, Th5s7h that this is a very strong hand and that u should play aggresively.

Lets say u have no real read on the table- really general loose play, nothing too passive and not too aggresive

Should u be re-raising someone who bets before you? Is that EV+? I mean, lets you are last to act and 3 people have called a bet from UTG. Should u raise or call? Since ur supposed to hit the flush a little over 35% of the time, u should be raising and reraising the flop, or just calling?

Thanks.

Raise. You have pot equity as you are putting in 20% of the money but will hit your flush 25% of the time (plus you will often also win by hitting an Ace or King).

Raise.

You'll probably win with the A or K and you're drawing to the nuts. You want to build a pot. Plus, by playing aggressively, if the river comes and misses your A or K, you might still win the pot and get your opponent to lay down a small pair that would unfortunately best you IF you didn't play aggressively from the get-go.
