However, this the exact same way I wouldve played the hand if I had the

. Only a fool would call there with a low flush, but unfortunatly he was a fool and called my raise with his ![[9d]](http://livepokerforum.com/images/smilies/9d.gif "The Nine of Diamonds")
[5d], and I didnt fill up. I couldve saved $25 by just calling, but I think theres enough folding equity to make it a decent play. Not my favorite of all time by any means.

I also don't give most people enough credit to fold a low flush. Yes there are 4 diamonds out so if he flopped a flush he can't like it, but a lot of players will call you and "pay you off" anyways. In addition,your opponent has invested $26 of his stack so far in the pot and only has another $25 in front of him. I would think this makes a call much more likely. You are getting about 3.5-1 on his $10 bet (I think) to call here and try to make a boat, so why not flat call and try to hit it--less expensive than when you put him all in, pray, and lose (if he has a diamond) and you might take the rest of his stack if you boat and put him all in on the river anyways.

[3d][8d]. Checked to me and I bet $5. MP raises to $15. (He started the hand with $50.). Damn! I callPot is $35. The turn is the
![[4d]](http://livepokerforum.com/images/smilies/4d.gif "The Four of Diamonds")
. I check. He bets $10. He has another $25 so I check raise him all in. He raised the flop so he doesnt have an ace high flush. Other wise he wouldve just called my flop bet. I think he has a low flush. He cant call my check raise without the or maybe the ![[Qd]](http://livepokerforum.com/images/smilies/Qd.gif "The Queen of Diamonds")
. If he does call, I have outs to the full house.Who likes / dislikes this play?
