Re: Party 3/6-How did I play this?
I bet the flop like you did. You likely have tons of equity here, and you really don't have any reason to believe that anyone else will bet. I want to make sure that a bet goes in on the flop, and leading here is the best way to do it.
With a one card flush draw that's not to the nuts, I'm not often 3betting it with this few people when it comes back to you. If your T was a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], and the 9 on the flop was a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], then it's an easy 3bet. But with CO raising here and and there only 3 players left in, Hero's outs may be less and may be dirty here often enough to make me believe that Hero's equity may not be big enough to 3bet. And out of position, 3betting can't get us a freecard. If all 7 players were in when CO raised, then there's more than enough overlay to 3bet it for value.
So I just call the raise on the flop and play the rest of the hand exactly as you did.
