Default live $55+7 flopped flush in BB with 3 limpers

we start with 400 chips including an optional 100 chip add on (that only cost $3 when the tourey cost $55+7). First and second place from the table go to a final table and make the $$.

I took a stab at a pot on the turn earlier when I didn't have anything and check folded the river when I couldn't beat ace high. two guys have already gone all in on an earlier hand and split the pot with just top pair, not even top kicker, straights and flushes possible on that board. the blinds are only 10/15 but they go up every 15 minutes. next level's not too bad but I think level 3 is 25/50.

6th hand. I'm dealt 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and there are 3 limpers, so 70 in the pot. I flop the flush and lead for 50. call. all in. fold. I do not cover.

how often does he have a flopped bigger flush? call or fold? If I fold, I've got 300. call and win, I've got about 700.

You need to get some chips pretty quickly it sounds like. Folding flushes is not a good way to get some chips. This could be lots of stuff, such as top pair or nut flush draw. I'm definitely calling.

You don't give too many details, like stack sizes, reads on the other players in the hand, the actual board, or stuff like that though, so I guess that could swing it. Probably not though.

That structure is a joke. Their actions make a little more sense in that light. I snap call.


What's the exact board?

It sounds like the action is pretty fast and players are getting it all in with less than optimal holdings. Mix that with a quick moving blind structure and I am probably calling here.

Really aggro players are capable of making this play with AdX or he could just have top pair and thinks that you need another card. Anyways, in this situation - I call.

I called. (no reads b/c sixth hand. stack sizes all similar - around 400). He had Td5d and the board was something like 7d 9d Jd.
