i bet the flop, but given how u got here fold looks good to me. only worse hands he can be raising for value here are kj/j8/99, but they probably raise less - and i don't think he's bluffing here ever.

I think that you are almost never deep enough in an Internet tournament to fold a 2-card flush with an unpaired board. Not that I would need reasons to call, but his raise seems too big to be for value, and he bet the flop when he could have taken a free card in an unraised pot with a flush draw. I know that your hand looks like a flush and he's raising, and I've talked myself into a lot of huge laydowns, but this one I can't do.

fwiw in the normal stuper i call, but imo this one plays much more passive in earlier levels.

They have a flush here like always and you don't beat any flushes. Good fold.

I do too, and yet I like the fold... sigh, I suck at poker.

He's never bluffing, does he have a straight or maybe 99 here 32% of the time? I actually don't think so.
