Default 5-10 NL straight flush draw

A solid UTG limps, and Villian ($1100) next to act makes it 30 to go. There's a reasonable but not good cold caller, and I call in the cutoff with 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I have $1000. UTG folds.

UTG+1 is a mediocre postflop and loose preflop player. He's probably a slight loser in the game. He'll raise any pair, any suited ace, AK, AQ, AJ, KQ from UTG+1 after a limper, but he's also capable of raising weird hands OOP to isolate.

3 to the flop ($115): 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG checks and villain throws out $50. Cold caller folds and I make it $150 more. Villain calls.

2 to the turn ($415): (7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]) T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Villain check-raise checks. I bet $250 and villain, sure enough, check-raises all-in.

How did he call the flop? This sure seems like a flush, and you could easily be drawing to one out here. Seems like a fold against most opponents.

uh, I have a 6-high flush against an all in checkraise from an unimaginative mediocre opponent?

He has K high flush. The 1/3 pot "throw out" on the flop is a good indication of draw.

what about a good combo hand ie a9 a10, aj with ace of [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]? not exactly his preflop range but maybe something similar to that. If he semibluffs aggressively then i may call

He is going to call a raise to 200 on the flop w/ AhTs or Ah9c?

The most likely hands that Gamblor beats here are a "tricky" red AA or KK.

This is tough because you are getting reasonably decent odds, but unimaginative opponent probably isn't doing this with KK[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or AA[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Raise was 150 more, but again, you put him on those hands after he calls a significant raise on the flop? You need to work on your basic handreading.
