Default Nut straight on a monotone flop

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

UTG ($4.55)
MP ($9.75)
CO ($4.35)
Button ($14.60)
SB ($20.65)
Hero ($9.85)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $0.10.
UTG calls $0.10, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($0.40) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $4.45 (All-In)</font>, CO folds, SB folds, Hero....


UTG probably isn't doing this without a big hand. The question is whether it's a made flush or something like TT, JdTx, T9, or AA with the diamond that wanted a raise PF.

Is an unknown .05/.10's donk-shove range wide enough to call in an unraised pot, or do you just let it go?

Call and make a note. This is very read dependent. Some players will ONLY do this with a flush, and others will do so with anything, even air.

Outside a specific read, you're ahead. Single diamond in hand is a big part, as are Two pair, Top Pair, stupid end of straight, plus made flush.

You're ahead more than %50 against a random player this level, so call.

If he has the made flush, make sure you note it in player notes.

Alright. Thanks.

I ended up calling and did make a note when he turned over like Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

I guess the reason I asked is because earlier today I flopped top set on a mono board and got it in against a made flush. I thought maybe I was overplaying my "big" hands on mono flops and wanted to make sure this call was ok.

Does a suited flop ever count as a monotone board?
