you get 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in the big blind.

There is a raise and 3 callers and you call getting 9.5:1

the flop is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

PFRaiser bets, First caller raises, second caller folds, 3rd caller Reraises.

What's your play?

seems like the only question to be answered is if there's a higher flush draw out there

I would bet the flop here. I like your hand.

you called with 5 high and got almost the perfect flop with lots of people in there with a straight flush draw. Call and don't go too crazy if you hit your 5 high flush. Only way you fold is if it's 3 bets to you on the turn and the board is paired.

I think you can muck here.

I like the hand too, but do you really want to bet out here. Looking at a likely raise from the preflop raiser, do you want to end up head up? When this happens you still likely end up with the same outs you had before. Its not like he can clear out a hand you want out either. Anyone with a better flush draw is calling two cold anyway.

I certainly don't mind tryin to get in some bets here on the flop but I think you're better off doing it by check raising the field when you get a bet and a caller or two.

what about a fold? out of the question?

not an easy fold, but my play is fold.

yea, it all depends if you put someone on a higher flush draw, if so you should fold and save yourself before you get deep in the pot with a flush, if you dont then definitely call here and see what happens, dont push real hard if you do catch your 5 high flush though as you could be in danger

that was my first thought when reading this hand.

you are really in trouble here (vs. a higher flush draw) unless you are against only good hands, which would also cost you a bit in terms of redraws available. again, unless you're against idiots.

id probably fold it if i checked this hand. calling 3 bets cold is risky, especailly since youcan't be as agressive as you'd like to be if you hit (unless you catch perfect of course).

EDIT: w/o decent reads
