No way I'm folding my flush. The board is unpaired, but my flush is only 4th nut. Do I just call? Is a raise for value or a spew?

Raise raise raise everyday of the week. The question should be; how do I get as much money from him??

Raise for value, call a push. Lots of uNL (new acronym, yay) players will check that turn with an A, hoping you'll bet at it again. Then they'll proceed to pay you off when you outdraw them anyway.

Raise that river. Unless I'm missing something, you don't have any information to suggest that you're behind.

The question is what are you going to do if your river raise is reraised? If it would make you puke in fear of a higher flush (possible), then just call villian's river lead and see a showdown.

you should be shoving, a potsized raise is to 1.6, and you have about 1.7 left

Well, it's the 3rd nut on the river, and yeah I agree with everyone else, raise. Also, I'd bet the turn here.

To the villain, it appears you raised pf, c-bet a flop you apparently missed, and shut down. Raise the river and push if re-raised.

If you're going to bet the flop here, shouldn't you be potting it? It seems to me like we're sacrificing fold equtiy with a <2/3 pot bet.

Raise all in. You will be ahead almost always.
