NL 25 flush

This hand came up today and got me thinking if I should ever even consider folding a flush at microstakes. SB is a regular. 15/9/2.47. I only have 600~ hands on him, but I've never seen him play any way except extremely conservative.

I probably check this flop.

Push turn, there's an excellent chance he flopped a straight, slowplayed it and is afraid of the club.

Alternatively, he could be playing a set like a fool too. I generally wouldn't worry about being outflushed unless there's 4 of that suit on board. Given it's a limped pot, you could be the one outflushing him.

i like to 3-bet this flop most of the time, as played i push the turn.

This regular has minraise-itis. I'd push the turn over his chronic minraise. I can't find a fold here.

IMO folding a flush (w/ 3 flush cards on the board, 4 is a diff story), is akin to folding a set, meaning it's near a cardinal sin at ANY stakes. Shove turn.
