Default PLO8, High hand, interesting, please help.

Please help me with these. I'm not sure I have the odds to call on the flop. Also, I was thinking of raising all in on the flop, and I think that it would be better than a call. The fone rang that minute and I misclicked and called.

Odds have very little to do with this hand. If you're drawing, you have only one out, and clearly then do not have pot odds. If you have the best hand, then obviously you are correct to play.

It's probably the former--Q-high flushes aren't going to drag many pots where a monotone flop get a bet and a raise from two opponents. Considering that you don't have a low draw as backup, this is a trivial flop fold.

I think the SB will show the ace high flush most of the time, button looks like he's looking for the board to pair or praying like you are that his non-nut flush is good.

Save your money for a better spot.

I guess the button has the nut low A2, and maybe a set or something hoping for his boat to fill up.

Yes, considering only a better hand will call, most of the time they have a high flush here.
