I just sat down and have no reads. I am pretty sure I am still ahead on this turn.

C/c here. You can't stand to call a big re-raise, but calling down is ok because you're either WA/WB and you have a draw to the nut flush.

MP just hit his flush or his Ace. slooow down at this point. i hate checking here, but i also hate the A and the third club. C/c any reasonable bet.

bet $6 on turn and fold to any reasonable action or give up if called. he very easily could have pair+str8 draw here and there's a chance he calls, doesn't hit, and you get a showdown.

I agree more with the first two posts. I don't like betting at all in this spot. Yeah there's a chance he calls with a worse hand but there is also a chance that you will get reraised off your hand when you may have the best hand already and are drawing to the nuts.

yep you're right king of clubs. ugh it's been a long drive and I'm staying at a hotel on the way back from vacation. yes checking is fine.

I b/f here. C/c is the worst of the options imo because youre not getting paid off if you hit and you cant afford to call a psb. No reason to think the A hit him, he can just as easily have top pair, a draw, or an overpair from the flop. With that said, if he raises your bet he is more than likely not bluffing as the A should scare him very often as well so its an easy fold after you bet. Immediately slowing down everytime you see a scare card is weak tight and so exploitable.

yeah Pro is right this is just a bet/fold. The fact the A is an overcard shouldn't bother you any, since he hopefully isn't peeling Ax on the flop. Tho they definitely do that some of the time....
