    I never saw this comming. Got tunnel vision with my straight and NF draw - didn't even think of a made flush. Horrible misplay or bad luck?

    3 handed I'm probably check raise shoving that flop. No... forget probably, I 100% am.

    That's a hand where you broke... and I agree with the shove, I don't think you get a chip more unless you go all in on that flop unless he himself has a monster.

    If you didn't go broke here you'd have played your hand badly.

    can one of these (could you make this laydown?) posts be realistic? NO YOU CANT GET AWAY FROM THE HAND. If you didnt know that already you shouldnt be gambling on this game in the first place..

    The reason I asked is that I had the Ace of Diamonds. Would anyone of you smooth call the flop like that guy did, and then risk all your chips, on a three flush board, if you didn't already have either the made flush or the nut flush draw? Its not so much that I flopped the straight. I flopped a nut flush draw on a three flush board. If someone smooth calls my flop bet, then bets into me, WHILE I HOLD THE ACE, should I stop and put them on the made flush. Because now that I look at the hand, the only way he goes all in there on the turn is if he puts ME on the A or K of diamonds. Then it becomes a pot odds thing, doesn't it? I called getting not quite 3 to 1 on my nut flush draw...

    Or are all of you saying that that level of thinking doesn't play?
