I assume the two most likely hands are Ax and a flush. How often is this a flush vs Ax? No info on villain.

A flush is less likely with the A/images/graemlins/club.gif on the board, since a lot of 2 club combos CO can play in a raised pot, include the Ace.

He has $3 left? I can't get away from your hand for another $6. Put him in. You have outs if behind.

I'd definitely put this shortstack all-in. Would you really fold to an extra $6 in a $13 pot?

Your major problem is Your missed bet on the flop. If You bet $4.5 on the flop and he has a flush draw only, he has to commit half his stack to his draw. So bet the pot on the flop.

To Your question: I think it is by far more likely he has a flush. There's only one A left in th deck and we know lots of people like to play any two suited cards.

But no matter what, You have to call his reraise. You have to put $3 into a $13.5 pot and there are 10 outs left for You!

I don't get this. How can he have a flush and an ace?

He was saying that the other guy having an ace is unlikely and that flush is more likely.

If you aren't willing to put the short-stack AI on this turn, then you probably should not be playing NL.

Bet something on the flop with all intentions of setting him all-in.
