Easy cap with the calling station coming along.
When you check a brick on the turn, the TAP button will probably get confused and give you a free card when he has the best hand.

I check almost any turn card that comes here

Capping seems thin here. Around break-even I'd imagine since you're likely drawing to solely a flush.

Flop check/raise is bad IMO as well. You're isolating yourself heads up with the PFR on an AKQ flop. You're not ahead often at all here. I think I'd just check/call the flop here.

*grunch*

I cap the flop. You're likely outkicked and even up against two pair, but you also might be up against another, lower flush draw. With the nut flush draw and top pair its time to fire with both barrels. Top pair likely won't hold up, but say another ace drops or the K or Q pairs on the board. That might salvage your hand here. Really you're pulling for another heart.

Another A does not fold here, calling station will call, TAP will not fold a good A. Why cap?

We have a pure draw here. Capping is neither for value nor to protect. TAP will not go that crazy about a flush draw if he has one.

I just call Button's bet here trying to keep CC.

Because of your relative position, you should prolly bet out rather than c/r this flop.

betting is worse but still better than check raising.

How likely are you to have the best hand on the flop?

How likely are you to have the best hand after the Button 3-bets?

What kind of equity do you have?

Are you confident you'll make the best hand if you pair your kicker?

Think about what you want to accomplish on the flop.

Would you like to be heads up with the Button, or would you like the other dude in to possibly pay off if you make a flush?

Do you want a bunch of bets going in?

How would this hand play differently if there were more players between you and the Button? Why?
