Agree

hella standard. i was thinking about whether this is more +EV than checking behind, but i think it clearly is.


maybe if the turn was a lower heart instead, i'd prefer a checkbehind, but I think you need to get him off an ace much of the time here to win it, and you should have no problem doing that with a shove.

yep I like this

[ahnuld]

I dont like this. You are good often enough, and im not convinced hes folding an A

[jackflashdrive]

so evil.

do you still push if he bets $71.99 on river, leaving about $200 behind?

[Chaostracize]

Hm

When you call the turn, how often do you have a flush draw there? Ever?

Isn't this also a good turn for the flop bettor to be betting a draw, since there's a good chance you have a weak K/mid pp/flush draw and he can use the added power of the A to get it off?

I'm not convinced that you're up against an A here at all, and I think checking through has a ton more +ev.

The only hand that you could legitimately is the A high nfd turned top pair rivered flush, and I think you can be expected to put more action in on the flop with that hand, anyway.

I think you'll get looked up more out of confusion with an A, and when you don't get looked up I think you were ahead anyway.

Edit: Thinking more, I think the most likely holding is another K, in which case, I think a regular PSB or 3/4 pot bet should work fine. I don't think you need an "extra" support in this specific hand to push a K out.
