Villains are all retarded 45/3 types.

I absolutely HATE these spots. If its not the most difficult spot, its definitely up there in the most-difficult-spot list.

Help?

in the moment i'd probably just call and swear after someone caps. but if i took some time to think, i fold. you're most likely not drawing to the full 9 outs, but less. and if you hit, most likely not the best flush.

lets see... 13.5bb in the pot thus giving you 6.75:1 on your call... you are probably up against an ass with an Ace and another with a 6 and possibly another FD... so i think that you might lose to a bigger flush on the river if you do hit at times, however when you are good you also make bank... it's a tough spot i think i find myself gamboling here and calling... pot is huge and you have some chance to win if you hit so i think it would be a mistake to give up an entire pot this large getting about 7:1 on your money...

I can see where hyper is coming from but IMO I call… just try not to get a cap I non the river if you hit… I think it’s CO that’s on the draw so if he is making the raise on the river then call and hope he has a smaller… but this is a big pot I’d least take a stab at winning it on the next card…

And even if you think it will get capped here, you’ll get 18:1 to call the cap or 6:1 on your first call if you think you have to put in 3 more bets still 6:1 good enough in a huge pot to draw IMO…
