Message: [QUOTE="Vegas Cat, post: 477507, member: 15683"] [b]Bet to find where you stand[/b] If Hero checks, MP1 has been calling all the way, MP1 may think Hero had a pair of aces and is now wary of the flush, MP1 would probably bet out big and Hero would have no way of knowing if MP1 really had the flush. MP1 could have been calling all the way because he had a pair of aces or two pair. If Hero bets too much, MP1 maybe did have the flush, will go over the top on Hero or call and Hero will lose big. Hero should bet just enough that if MP1 was also wary of the flush but did have something, he'd just call, if MP1 had nothing and thought Hero might have the flush, then he'd fold because there was no sense in him putting anymore money in, and if he did have the flush, he'd either call or come over the top, in which case Hero could fold with the least amount of loss from having to bet. Hero should bet about 1/2 the pot. Cheers, Vegas Cat [/QUOTE]
