BB smells so much like a higher flush. Can't fold the turn with two outs. I'd highly consider folding the river though.

this hand is awesome, i think you did everything right.

if it was me i probably would have capped the turn, knowing that UTG didn't have the flush and BB might have the flush, if not A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J.

I was going to say this: Cap turn -- cry call river cause pot is huge. Maybe you got lucky and he has a set...

But, I was in a similar hand live this past weekend where it was 5-way on the turn on a similar board like this. I turned a T high flush and bet out in EP, there was a raise a cold call and then the button 3-bet. What kind of hand on a non-paired board 3-bets in a huge pot like this into such a large field that's already shown strength? I think something that beats us. A small flush or set probably cold calls. I called down too and got shown the A high flush.

I think calling down isn't bad -- although I do think we're behind.

I'd quote Toss's third sentence too, but I know I wouldn't really be able to throw away my flush heads-up on the river, closing the action, getting 28:1. I'd tell myself that, despite his screen name, BB might have played top set stupidly. And then I'd call, fully expecting to see the nut flush.

Hahah I wouldn't be able to fold too. What I say and how I play are two different things. I'll tell myself to fold, but then I'll look at the $900 in the middle and say [censored] it I can't fold this.

So did you win a big fat sexy pot Shant?

Fold preflop!!!

You all think that there is no problem in the fact that he was in this game!?!

Hero is often getting 6:1 or better PF with a sooted connector in position. Its not a bad call.
