Re: Flopped nut flush
[ QUOTE ]
Betting was capped on the river (river-spew problem raising its head again...should I cap river only if I have the absolute nuts?)

Capping this river is great. The thing is, if he has a boat on the river, he was aggressive enough to put in 4 bets on flop and turn with less than a flush despite the monotone board, which means he's aggressive enough to keep going with a flush now. To not cap the river you would have to think that 99 would give all this action not caring about the flush, but on the river he'll suddenly be too scared that he won't 3bet without a boat. That's kind of contradictory if you think about it.
Paradoxically I'd be more afraid of his line if he didn't cap the turn.
