Re: really, really deep top set hand
i agree with the above about reraising OOP with this hand;
i think if you are going to commit yourself you should check/raise the flop; thereby encouraging a lower flush out; and if you are up against the nuts you've got 7 then 10 outs
The problem occurs on the turn precisely because you are so deep and OOP; i dont think you have any option but to 3/4 pot or pot on the turn; Alternatively check/fold as you aren't getting your 4.5/1 odds even with 700 behind assuming a pot bet from your opponent
1/2 pot bet, i have to agree with roundtower, is the worst play here; although something like a minibet (if youve been seen to minibet with the nuts) might be just called; in which case you can bet the river; although its risky if your man likes to slowplay
Personally i check raise the flop as anything but the nuts flush doesnt call and occaisonally your gonna get called by qqq or even 888; also if your man hapenned to be making the bare ace play he cant call
