There is no such thing as a "read" for having a better hand. If Doyle thought Jamie was strong, he needs to think about the hands that Jamie would consider "strong." Any flush is certainly among those hands, and while two pair / sets / straights are not very likely, they are without a doubt possibilities. Jamie also loves to bluff as we know, and potentially picking off a Jamie Gold bluff here will reap huge rewards, mainly the $170k in the middle, $135k or so from Gold.

a point well stated. i wish i had been able to come across as well.
look. flush over flush is a very profitable hand. while others have called it marginal as if marginal situations are disdainful. they are not.
