I'm well and truly out of whack at the moment and nothing seems natural, so I'm going to be posting a few fairly simple types of hand to try and get my head back in order.

This is at the Cryptos, villian is a crazy man. He's about 40/40 preflop and has a strange old tendancy to raise to 6x every single time he's UTG. Literally. I've managed to pay him off a couple of times when he's made really strange hands and he just stacked some poor guy with AA when the other guy had JJ.

Hero ???

So i now have TPTK and the nut flush draw, do I...

A) bet pot.
B) bet less.
C) Check-raise
D) Check-fold (stupid, but the option has to be there)

He will bet if checked to. Every time.
And yes, in case anyone says get a better seat so he's not directly to my left I did that too.

I wouldn't call this hand simple.

I like the option that is not listed check/call.
If you are SURE that he bets every time I think check-call turn is best, let him make the betting for you. With a plan of calling almost any river bet, I would even advocate checking river if you catch your nut flush.

I don't like CR as he will call you (put AI) with a flush/set and fold all the air that he could float you with. Check-folding is not an option either.

Betting is possible, but I am not sure waht to do if he would raise here. Probability of a bluff bet (after he floated flop) is higher than a probaility of a bluff raise, so you'll face less bluffs and more good hands if he raises you.

All-in-all you pick more bluffs/ lose less in a call down mode.

Check/Call. Check/Call any river.

Check/Raise all in.

Both are ok by me.
