Re: Small flush - do I call?
i don't know, i'd say yes simply because he tables QQ and AQ here so much, especially QQ with the Qh. especially at these limits.

Re: Small flush - do I call?
Fold preflop for one...and unless you're sure he'll bet you should lead out because that flush can easily be counterfeited by a bigger flush (and straight flush). Usually with really small flushes with cards to come I fire away (unless another one falls in which I usually throw my mouse out the window and recollect myself).

Re: Small flush - do I call?
And to answer your question...depends on the type of player. From how that was played I assume he sucks so he could have anything from a pair to a higher flush. He possibly has it because the check then miniraise in my experience has shown a big hand (maybe hit the straight on the turn?)...all depends on your read on him.

Re: Small flush - do I call?
Fold pre, as played......pot flop, turn, river, call re-raise
Most importantly, fold pre. |

Re: Small flush - do I call?
Op, why call pre-flop with 23s and not make as much money as possible when you flop very strong? Your rarely going to flop anywhere close to this strong. You paid to try to make a longshot hand. Made it, failed to build much of a pot with it, then folded it. Does this strike you as a profitable venture? I am not trying to be rude. I just wanna make clear how unprofitable this line and approach to the game is.
