Default Re: Flush draws: When to keep going and when to give them up?

[ QUOTE ]
A four-flush on 4th is almost always worth a raise, whether you have facecards in there or not.

Hey Roland - old buddy old pal.

The spot where I vary from this, is when I am in mid-position in a multiway (4,5 or more) pot. If it is raised to me, and I have a strong live flush draw and the players who have not acted yet have bricked, and I want them around, I often just call. Especially if I think they are chasing straights. Lots of times the late position guys will come along for one bet on fourth, but if you make them cold call two bets, you may drive them out when you'd rather have them stay around and donate.
