I don't like the flop 3-bet. Otherwise looks fine. I don't think you can fold the turn in this pot.

Why not? I'm pretty sure I have a pretty huge equity edge. The flop checkraise is coming from my left (as opposed to the first flop bet which came from my right). It seemed like a decent opportunity to put in a value raise.

Many thinking players are greatly mistaken in spots like this. You have only 8 outs and 2 of them are tainted by the flush draw. Very different situation than having the nut flush draw + 1 over card (11 outs minus discount with 8 to the nuts.) Also, your 3-bet will make weaker hands less inclined to bet out when you hit, hence it will be harder to get in the extra bet.

I might be going blind, but where was the flop check/raise?

Even if I only give myself 6 outs, I still have greater than the break-even 20% pot equity with 4 players to act after I 3-bet the flop. I understand that I'm only talking about fractions of a BB worth of positive EV, but am I really giving up an equal or greater amount in implied odds?

Button...checked....out of turn...before UTG bet the flop. You just didn't hear him...because you weren't there.

No, it's EV+ if you know it's going to be six-handed. Although SSH says fold for loose small stakes tables in middle position. As for the flop, the flush might not hit anyone so I'd give those two outs an out-value of 1. Partial outs :)
In SSH it says that the backdoor flush with one card (ace or king but the king is there so this is second nut flush) makes your hand STRONGER on a four-flush flop because of the redraw to a flush than a rainbow flop. If the river was a spade the payoff would have been pretty good from a lower flush and unlikely that someone has the ace of spades.

If I were 4 tabling or more I would probably just fold this preflop as well, however I think postflop you played it just fine. Way to bet your draws!

Wow, even with the nut flush draw you're doing ok. Surprising result.

With all due respect for you limit experts (been dabbling lately), it seems to me like he doesn't hurt his implied odds by 3-betting the flop since there is a lot of confidence/loose action present regardless. On top of that small flop bets/raises get much less respect in general since a wide range of hands would act aggressively on this board.
Educate me.

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

I like to keep my opponents passive to threaten to raise a lot of the times when I'm in the hand and I have a marginal edge.

Read the thread bro. It was determined to be correct to 3-bet in this case.
