    Default 100nl Zoom - Discussing Strategic Options MW Flopped Flush

    Villain is a random reg, I don't have my HUD running and have no written notes at the time of the hand.

    I think I have one of the worst flushes in my range and it seems like regs at 100zoom just stuff the turn when they have it facing a polarized range without considering the implications it has for river play. Im not sure whether people play sets like this at all, but if so, it's possible he has all of them in his range. I appreciate the insight from you guys on what is going on with that. I presume most players are aware their sets (lowest ones especially) are bluffcathers here and don't normally spazz jam the turn, but I don't think it's with a non 0% frequency they do get jammed. Agree/disagree?

    My plan was to c/c the flop against a normal sized bet, however, given villains bet size I made the assumption that he can be betting a wider range with more protection hands (Kx etc) included and I want to be check raising vs a range like that. As far as my c/r range is built, my thinking is we want to c/r some Jx occasionally that can't call multiple streets given we block top set in addition to some flopped flushes.

    My decision not to lead was I want to have flushes in my checking range, and prefer my leading range to be stronger (Nut flushes, nut flush blocker)

    Im interested in what you guys think of my ideas here and would like to discuss how we construct our ranges with each action. Also the decision of whether to call or fold facing the turn jam is puzzling, but perhaps its more obvious to some of the more experienced zoom players here.
