I was thinking along the same lines, which is why I was surprised to see fnord say that a lot of villain's range here is XhYh.

Fnord, what makes you say that a lot of non-nut flushes are in his range? Why on earth would anyone check a flopped non-nut flush 5-way? Even if he has the Q high flush, I would still think it would be wrong to give 4 other people a free card here. If nobody has the Kh, a 4th heart on the turn is probably going to halt action anyway, and if someone does have it you're obviously f'ed. So it seems to me the flop would be the best time to try and get your money in with a non-nut flush.

P.S. I really like analyzing a hand one street at a time like this. Very cool format for a post, and a very cool hand.
