Am in BB sitting with 20k odd in chips. Average is about 12k or so I guess. Blinds at 100/200. The table has been pretty tight and no-one has been opening from early with anything less than AK, AQ or pocket 10s upwards. There has been little flat calling behind raises.
UTG+1 opens for 600. Two callers, not including the LAG on my right, the only player at the table that's shown loose propensities. I hold
. Getting more than 5-1 on my money, I'm duty bound to call. All other players in the hand have between 8-13k behind, with UTG + 1 on around 13k.
Joy. A flopped flush. I think it was something like 953. Pot is 2500.
Question 1 - bet, hoping to induce action (and avoiding giving someone a free stab at a higher flush), or check? Let's assume you check.
UTG+1 checks. First limper bets 1200. Second limper folds. Round to you.
Question 2 - flat call or raise and, if you raise, by how much? Are you looking to take it down here and now or are you prepared to chance another spade appearing on the turn?Let's assume you flat call. UTG+1 raises it to 4500 or so. The other two get out.
Question 3 - I'm assuming you're re-raising here. Are you pushing or re-raising less, and what's your rationale?
