Taj 5k, baby flush facing overbet reraise

[pzhon]

I folded, and the CO folded.

The CO claimed to have folded J9, no club. The SB claimed to have the J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] for a straight-flush draw. I believe both players. The SB made a similar play with the nut flush draw on a later hand (and was called by a lower flush draw with two overcards).

Before the flop, I figured that I would be willing to stack off with flush under flush, but I was worried about going to the felt in a 3-way pot. I folded because I felt that A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] x[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] was too likely of a holding for the CO, while he should have no trouble getting away from a hand like QT or JT.

I don't think there was much of a difference between calling and pushing. It will very rarely make any difference, and there are effects in both directions which cancel.

I now think it was right to call or push, and that I cost myself a significant amount by folding.
