Folding a Flopped Flush with little information

I flopped a flush with full stack in a limped pot five way. I have 56hh on Q73hh. Is anyone ever folding here? We both started the hand ~100bbs $50.00 stacks at .25/.50. Villian is a competent reg, he does bet in position and shows some signs of aggression.

ima donkey who makes -EV decision after -EV decision, so i cant help this thread... i will post though

I agree with the logic that if I'm not willing to get it in with a flopped flush then why the fuck am I playing in the first place. To me his range is sets, made flushes, and a few combo draws mostly Ahx. I am leaning towards made flushes due to the fact he called and then back jammed over a raise and call. Seems like he is now trying to extract max value/force Ah holder to a tough decision. I know my hand is under-repped and most of my opponents will not put me on a flush. I also think that some people will actually view my hand as not wanting more hearts meaning I have some value hand like top top, over pair, or I have a baby flush. I think fold pre is the bottom line but I think as played the fold on flop is correct. Unfortunately.

he limped AA or KK w a heart pre

Really feel like most of his range is made flushes that don't have the ace of hearts and sets.

50% made flush
25% set
10% combo draw mostly containing ace of hearts, or a queen (example AhQ, KhQ)
6% naked Ah
2% over pair with no heart
1% AQo
1% something else

i agree with your analysis...i mean im not good enough to provide advice. BUT, i think many good players would make the laydown here. I think the set percentage maybe higher. It depends what you think his image of you is. Given he's a reg at this level, idk if hed be playing with anything lower than a the combo draw.

I think you save yourself money here though. If he deserves the respect you give him, then you prolly made a good play. I know it feels bad, bc you hit the best flop you could of gotten :/ and still had to fold.

i would of called bc, you got the best flop w ur hand, but then again idk what percentage of the time he puts you on the hand u have. he prolly put u on a set or combo draw, and pushed with made flush or a combo draw himself.

idk, this is complicated. not really sure. sorry, if this doenst help. i just figured id give some thought.

i think you shouldnt worry though. if you are a winning player, then it might have been worth calling to see what the reg has. You would have eventually made back ur losses if u lose and gotten a ton of good info.

I think you just gotta play your game though. All the pros make big laydowns like this though, when the get played back at, so its not necessarily a bad play. You might have just made a genius laydown. I think its good to move on though, DONT LET THIS TILT YOU.

based on your logic, the fold seemed to be correct.

i think u shoudl post this on two plus two or decues cracked forum. There shoudl be some good advice there from more experienced players.

Yes the set percentage could definitely be higher. The trickiest part of the hand is that he goes from flatting 1.25 to jamming $50. I think a crucial part of the hand is the SB putting in $4.50 making his check call look pretty damn strong. Either nut draw or made flush. Felt gross to fold. Glad I wasn't last to act. I might of fold showed. Which would be terrible. Ew.

Really good advice. Good to analyze but I should be doing it when I am not mid session. Lol

That is exactly what I would have assumed and made the all in call. ....And then I would have lost.

The way he played it, it does scream set. This is one of those hands where you'd like the option to run it twice.

I think with that push, and the fact that you know 5 hearts are accounted for, he's protecting a hand weaker than a flush, but potentially with a better flush draw... I'd put him on a set or 2 pr with one big heart in his hand. IMO, probably a bad fold at the time, but you might have dodged getting outdrawn. As the saying goes, a bad fold is only a small mistake.

Tough Spot with Flopped Flush in Main Event

Your analysis seems sound and the fold correct. Good job thinking it through and making a tough laydown!

I don't think he has too many combos of two pairs because he's never playing Q7, Q3, or 73. I'm starting to think his set percentage is much higher though. Perhaps 30-40% instead of 25%. I think he is showing up with non-nut flushes more often than sets still, just because of the fact that sets are still on a draw and non-nut flushes cannot improve.

Great thread. Glad to read that a lot of my thought processes is in line with high level thinking players that I look up to. Thanks for that NateVest

You really got to fold that spot that time to much risk not enough reward. U never dears unless he has ur str8 flush blocker with the ace. But even if u ahead and villain has naked ace heart u have to fade two streets for a lot of our stack. And u never want to be drawing to the one outer what till better spot. Best advice u might catch him kk over QQ

You flopped a flush and a straight flush draw but in all likelyhood he probably has the nut flush, which you don't have so I would suggest that you fold.
I personally hate low suited connectors so I probably would of just folded preflop.
