yep he does.. ok so you flat call an almost pot bet on the flop. because your are seeing your hand as flush draw + 2 over cards.. but in reality it is just a flush draw your other outs are dead.

so pushing the turn when you have 2 more outs, also known as a massive %23 chance to hit.. is pretty dangerous..

you can work all this out in the hand, he re-reraises you preflop so you know he's big.. AA, KK, QQ.. if he has AA you have 11 outs, KK, you have 9.. QQ your winning, but why are you pushing, he's not calling.

so like i said in my previous post, fold preflop. that way you save yourself hitting a piece of the flop you cant get away from.. you got lucky this time.

A rereraise preflop usually means aces or kings. I'm not a big fan of reraising preflop with AK in the first place, although I do find myself doing it from time to time to mix things up. I understand the move though as he only min-raised to begin with. After he comes over the top of you though, you should lay it down.

As played, post-flop action is fine. You are getting odds to chase your flush. The ace is also live against KK and both cards are live vs QQ.
