I would wait a bit before attacking posters out of position with suited connectors.

I think the turn bet is mediocre since he'll have a flush draw a good % of the time.

Wait for what?

Also...FWIW, I would have played it the same in full.

No. I doubt he's peeling that flop with no pair and no draw. Any spade is going to call you on the turn, and any pair is likely going to showdown.

It's the same play in short or full. It makes no difference if 4 players folded or if 8 players folded.

Take the free flop with 6 high.

It depends on why he is making the bet. If it's for value it's okay. If it's to fold out a hand because of the ace scare card, it's bad. That doesn't work.

ok....the advice is becoming overwhelming here, so I'm listening intently and thinking because I still like the play.

So...let me throw my thoughts out here and then perhaps I can get my thinking corrected from there...

ok...I'm assuming about everyone here makes this play from the button. I certainly would unless the blinds were ridiculously loose, in which case I limp.

Now...given that fact, let's compare the situations.

On the button, you have position, which of course, is a very imporant factor. However, is it really more important than already knowing that everyone has folded and co is probably weak.

I've understood these situations to not be so much about your cards here as initiative and what you can represent.
