Default Re: Top Two Facing Possible Flush

[ QUOTE ]
I showed preflop aggression and I'm acting immediately after him. If he waits for me to bet then check-raises (as he should with a strong made hand) the two callers in between are likely to come along because they only have to put in one bet each time. If he has two-pair, it's correct to bet and hope that I raise, blasting the two callers in between out of the pot.

My issue is that two pair IS a strong made hand. So I don't understand why you would blast in that hand but trap with a flush. All I'm saying is that getting a hand read based on this action is dubious, IMO.

I agree that the flop read is dubious, but it might be the best that we can do here. I feel like a leak of mine is to get overly conservative when I can't get a narrow enough range of hands based on the action. I tend to default to "get to a cheap showdown". It cost me a BB here.
