    Default Flopped nut flush - whats the best line to extract value ?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, 24 Tournament, 30/60 Blinds (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    saw flop

    Hero (MP) (t2540)
    CO (t70)
    Button (t1320)
    SB (t1450)
    BB (t2280)
    UTG (t1340)

    Hero's M: 28.22

    Preflop: Hero is MP with A, 7
    1 fold, Hero bets t180, CO calls t70 (All-In), Button calls t180, 1 fold, BB calls t120

    Flop: (t640) 6, 4, 3 (4 players, 1 all-in)
    BB checks, Hero bets t120, Button calls t120, BB raises to t300, Hero calls t180, Button calls t180

    Turn: (t1540) 9 (4 players, 1 all-in)
    BB bets t120, Hero raises to t660, 1 fold, BB calls t540

    River: (t2860) K (3 players, 1 all-in)
    BB checks, Hero bets t1400 (All-In), 1 fold

    Total pot: t2860
    Main pot: t310 between Hero and CO, won by Hero
    Side pot 1: t2550 won by Hero

    What is the best line to extract max value on this hand ?

    Personally I am not sure I would have played A7s from UTG+1, but maybe it's a bit different in a 6-max tourney.

    On the flop, I would definitely bet a little more, maybe 200 or so. As played, I would re-raise small (maybe a little more than min) after BB raises, he is never folding to such a small raise and maybe one of the others would come along for the ride too

    As played I think the turn and river are fine, but I think that by building the pot on the flop you can make opp even more pot committed than he already is. Frankly I am very surprised that he folded the river given the action on prior streets

    it may be a bit on the loose side, however it is practically a 5 handed table given the non existent stack of the CO.

    Yeah, I should have bet a bit more on the flop, my thinking was that with a player all in I need to make it very attractive to FD and SD to stay around, but I agree that a bet of 200 is better.
    I am not sure about the reraise, I want the button to come along

    Actually after reviewing the hand I don't like my turn play, given the way the hand is played I think villian's most likely hand is a flopped set, and I gave him good odds to chase his boat (assuming I will not fold the river), I should have probably raised it by a 1000 or so

    I think if you min re-raise on the flop it will be impossible for button to resist calling given the pot odds

    Yeah, maybe 50-60% of the pot or 750-850 would have been better

    Whether you bet more on the flop or on the turn, basically I think you want to make it irresistable for opp not to call the river
