You've flopped the nut flush. Now What?

How would you rate moving all in?

Yes, you'd like to get more money out there, but the pot is $2400 and that improves your likelihood of going deep.

If you slow play it and lose, wouldn't you wish you'd taken it down? Also, who says he will fold?

IF im moving allin now, it is nothing to do with being worried about losing the pot at anypoint.

Folding = obviously lol. I prefer leading out to check-raising all-in. Check-call, check-call/check and lead out on river is preferred line.

Go all in!

As I understand the pot is 2400 with his raise and he has 3400 left (~11BB or M~7½).

He shouldn't expect you to go all in with the nut flush. Since you have no reads I assume he is an average player, he will most likely call you with +AJs, +twopairs and possibly with a Ksx hand. Slowplaing the hand will only give him a chance to fold the hand. If he doesn't call the push I don't think he'll call later either.

On the other hand he could fold and still have enough of a stack to be able to advance in the tourney.

if there is one thing that i got clear in my head, is that if you put all your chips in the pot with the best hand, and you lose, there's nothing to worry about, you played it well.
in the matter i would do what soulman has said, with a little thingie i really like. id wait a lot before doing my decision just to show weakness more. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

In a low buyin and in a family pot, I'd always lead the flop. In fact, I'd always lead the flop whatever the buyin this crowded.

Uh yeah, where 'preferred line' = as played on the flop.

[JesseB_11]

I'd lead out for about 600-800

In a $5 you'll get a fold too often by shoving it.

In a $20 I probably lead flop for 1/2 pot and expect to be raised somewhere along the way. If I get a caller I'll check the turn, obv.

I'll lead the flop 100% of the time if my flush is not the nuts (i.e. K-high or J-high).

In a $5 I'll check and let someone try to bluff me out of the pot.
