Min. raise or flat call. If anyone raises all-in you call. I think all may fold to your all-in here - it's early. I also think enough will call your flat call to come along with you and earn more than you would if you go all-in. MP1 has to act after all of them, so flat-calling may be the best option to get the best return.

I wouldn't go all-in, but would raise enough that a smaller flush has to call. Maybe another T250. If someone pushes, call and hope they don't turn over 9hTh [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm not that concerned about smaller flushes. I want to rape the Aces.

[joeboe2001]

Given the trade off between the amount of your raise and the likelihood that the other two will just fold (we have to give them some credit!) I would try a small raise to keep the betting alive just in case one of the fish is willing to bite and reraise.

If you bet a little more, you might get a call; if you push you probably won't. Seems like a few chips and the possibility of a few more offsets whatever you might get out of a big bet.

i think id raise to 400-500. i think thats about the limit of what most $16 players will call with just an ace.

if you're lucky you get a reraise. you will probably stack a smaller flush (hell, you'd stack me. i'd play my 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] to the felt here with the 4-straight on board every time)

The flat call will most likely gain you another 60 out of UTG+1. The min-raise most likely gains another 120 out of MP1. I wouldnt be hoping for the BB or CO to call either bets. I think I would raise enough that MP1 feels obligated to call and hope for a push from UTG+1 or MP1. I like a raise of 300 here also.

[Bernas]

I like a raise between $300 and $400.

Did you consider betting on the flop?

[partygirluk]

I don't like betting the flop with KQ. Unlikely to take it down vs. this field.
