KKK on 4-flush board

I'm leaning toward not raising the flop. It depends a lot on board texture.

It also depends upon your opponents. I know of a few who will call down with a wide variety of hands, but who would never initiate action by putting the first bet on any street in this hand unless they had a flush. I also know of a quite a few players who will bet the turn if and only if they have the ace and would only bet the second or third-nut flush on the river if it got checked through on the turn.

Some players in UTG+1 would lead out on this flop only with the nut flush draw, top pair with a good club kicker, an overpair most likely with a club, or possibly a set. Against this player, you might consider just calling the flop and raising the turn on a non-club, non-ace. Who thinks that you should bet the turn against a player with this range?

I would not be surprised to see this hand turn out to have J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] vs Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Then again, AT vs KT with no clubs would not surprise me, either.
