Call. This is often a flush, but remember that you don't have to win this every time for it to be a +EV call.

Against unknown I think you have to pay it off, I'm not happy about it though.

VB the river yourself. i think that this is a very dangerous board and he could be calling with a lot of weak hands against a PFR. hands like sets, 2ps.

also, bet more on the turn. any hand that calls a bet on this flop definitely has a strong hand or draw and is going to call more on the turn.

I'd fold. I think he has a flush here 75% of the time or more.

effang,

If I bet the river, do I call a shove?

Putting out a block bet sounds reasonable, but usually I'd c/f. *edit* It'd be a b/f line.

Re: Flop nut straight, possible flush on river 100NL
 

I would have c/c a smaller bet, but full pot is a flush way too often.

LOL Why is it 75% or more? LOL

I had almost identical hand today, spooky - but the flush card came on the turn and 3d on the river ie in reverse order.

In that case what does hero do on the turn, and possibly on the river?

Just a number I threw out there. With a psb here I think he has a flush the vast majority of the time and a set or 2 pair seldom (15%) and a bluff 10%.

Re: Flop nut straight, possible flush on river 100NL
 

I think b/f for $30-$40 is much better than c/c.

Re: Flop nut straight, possible flush on river 100NL
 

Call. You only have to be right 35% of the time, and I think that this is a worse hand (JJ, AK, even a slow played KK) often enought for it to be worthwhile. So, click reload just in case, but call ...

I like a larger turn bet as well, and I don't mind the c/c on the river. I think a $30 bet on the river works, too, but keep in mind that if he shoves over your $30, you're then looking at $40 to win $150, and you'll have to call that as well ...

Yup.

How does everyone else feel about this sentiment? I feel like the bet is begging for a fold whereas a flush would bet ~1/2 pot.
