NL hand - slowplay the nut flush?

WorldBeater · #1 02-10-2005, 12:09 PM

The game is NL holdem with blinds of 5 and 10. Each player in the hand has about 1k in chips. You call in MP with Ad8d. There are 3 more limpers and the blinds check.
The flop is 6d 7d Jd. A solid player leads for a pot sized bet from the SB. The BB folds. The action is on you and the 3 players behind you don't play well.
Do you call or raise?

Is this a good situation for a slowplay?
Reasons why it is or is not?

Thanks

I would call. The only thing you fear is if the board pairs up. You have 2 people who are bad. This could be very profitable.

As long as the board doesn't pair up, I'd get more aggressive on the turn. This is a situation with huge potential rewards.

also if a 4th flush comes, it will kill your action.

"also if a 4th flush comes, it will kill your action." I wonder if the live players are any better then the online players? Online at least, I could see a 4th spade also give him more action. If the suited king is out there, they're often too stubborn to give it up.
