How fast did HAAANH call? Could be facing sets, top-2, and smaller flushes. I would push this.

If you are somehow ahead, which I sincerely doubt, I'm pretty sure you have to dodge every heart and board-pair in the deck. Plus, the fact that G4U just called is pretty suspicious.

Edit: not THAT suspicious actually...also G4U was being really spewy today so I guess this is a bit closer...

I think a fold is in order as well. It's a little too optimistic to think that you're ahead too often here. As KoD pointed out, even when you are, you gotta dodge half the deck to win. If you're behind, you're always drawing dead.

I think HAANH will have a set at minimum here, although he could have a lower made flush, and G4Us cold call is verry suspicious. I think a fold would be prudent.

You know, the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] being on the board, and the 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in your hand, really cut down on the number of reasonable flushes out there. QJ, QT, Q8, JT, J8, T8 beat you, but 86, 85, 65, 64, 54, and 43 lose to you.

I also question whether HAANH would fastplay the queen-high flush here; his action is more consistent with a vulnerable hand or a big draw.

I like a pooosh.

i don't like a call. really feels like gamble holds a flush. if hes holding say AsQh, would he fold to the c/r? (i know nothin abuot gamble4u). If he wouldn't, would he come over the top for ther est of the money?

at the same time i think it's close either way, and i don't hate a call, but i really feel a fold here at least the majority of the time.

I think it's a marginal decision. You are probably ahead of HAAANH here, he's likely to have 44, a really small flush, maybe A4 or maybe Qh (KQ or somthing). I doudt he would push flop w/big flush instead of making a healthy raise. G4U has you beat here alot of the times, he would probably push AA, KK, AK and not just call although you cant be sure. He might also have AQ (Qh). Back to the decision, you're getting pretty good odds to call, if you think there's a good chance that you're infront since 2 guys have their money in there. If you're ahead, 7 hearts and a paired board is what you're looking to avoid unless you're up against 2 sets, then you're in fine shape. If you're behind you're dead. All in all a tough spot, I'm leaning towards push.
