Re: Flopping a Small Flush

Playing this straight up and just betting big on the flop and moving in on the turn is the best way to play it imo.

Against a PFR who also sticks about for a big bet on the flop id expect a call a fair bit of the time by moving in there. Youd be pushing 1150 into 1290 I believe so its not an overbet or anything dumb. Hes called 430 on the flop leaving himself with a crappy 870, I really fancy him to call, he'll be getting very good odds of about 2.5/1.

Also the fact that he simply called the flop would lead me to think he may have the Ad in his hand and is trying to draw to the flush. By checking you give that hand a chance to suck out on you in a big pot (the pot is slightly bigger than your remaining stack at this point so is huge really). This would be a disaster.

Dont forget either that if you go all in and he folds it aint a big deal, you still won a good pot and made people pay to suck out. The most important thing to do when the pot is big is just to win it. Trying to get a bit tricky in a hand where the pot is bigger than your stack just isnt worth messing about with really.
