Fold.

He min raises the flop that means your in trouble... you could just let go right there, and once he fires again you need to let this go.

Fold. Clear case where we're spewing to a shortstack who got lucky on the flop or at least outdrew us on the turn.

Why's he leaving himself $3.50 behind? It's all going in on the river anyway. We don't need to pay $8.50 here to know that we're beat.

muck it.
You'd need a heall of a read to push the flop versus a flush draw.

Yep, managed to toss it and was fairly certain it was the right decision. Main reason for asking is that I am having trouble putting people on ranges still.

if the turn is not a spade you are in a horrible spot, simply because bad players will play their queen the same way they'll play their flush draw: like a fish Very Happy
