Default Nut flush draw out of position

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter

Villians are all quite loose and moderately aggressive based on my few hands at the table.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, MP calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, Hero calls, BB calls, UTG calls, MP calls.
Call ok here?

Flop: (10 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB calls, MP calls, Button calls.
Plan is to build a big pot. Well, that worked...

Turn: (11 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, MP calls, Button calls, Hero calls.
I don't really want to be raised now since I'll bet getting 3 to 1 at best, so I plan to check-call. Bet instead?

River: (15 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, Hero folds, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP 3-bets</font>, Button calls.
Worst... flush... ever...

Final Pot: 21 BB

Default Re: Nut flush draw out of position

PF: I like a call here. You will frequently get a 5-way pot where you can c/r the PFR or lead into the field to build a pot w/a good draw.

Flop: Bet/3-Bet looks good. Even if BB folds, you are still getting 2-1 on your re-raise, w/ the nut-flush draw and an overcard that might not be good. BB will call frequently anyway though in this big pot, so you likely will get 3-1 on your re-raise.

Turn: I like a check/call. A bet has no fold equity 4-way in a big pot, and a 4 is just going to raise your bet. Your flop 3-bet might even freeze the turn action, giving you a free card which would be nice.

River: I play this the same, the action behind you will usually let you know whether you're beat on a double-paired board. So all in all I play it the exact same way you played it.
