Re: flush vs big river raise in FTP 1k

This is a bluff with the A of clubs from someone who plays too much PLO.

no it's not, because nobody does that.
I mean, it could be a donk with any of a number of dumb hands, but it's never a bluff by the naked Ac by someone playing too much PLO.

I've seen this play made three times with the naked A, twice unsucessfully, once successfully, in 10K buy-in events -- 2006 USPC at the Taj (unknown player, successful), 2006 Mandalay Bay WPT (Steve Zoine, unsuccessful), 2007 Borgata WPT (unknown player, unsuccessful). I've never seen anyone play the nut flush like this, ever, nor can I come up with a reason why anyone ever would, other than being able to see Bakes' cards.
If it's not the nuts, which I refuse to believe it is, then he must feel confident he's not getting called, ergo he has the A of clubs.
