This opponent has been loose but tricky in the past...I have been punishing him for limping and raising with junk a lot.
I obviously have a strong draw with a nice over here but I just don't know if I'm getting good enough implied odds to call. I am assuming if another spade comes off that he will probably slow down if he doesnt have the flush himself, and maybe he will slow down to a lesser extent if an A comes off.
Are these assumptions normally correct? Assuming that they are correct and that he slows down most of the time what is my move here?
