Im not used to playing this deep

Live MGM game....and when I say "live" I mean its L...I...V...E

Player to my right has $2800 and limps. Hes the best live player Ive ever played with. I raise to $30 with [Th]

[Td]. I have $1500. The SB ($275) calls. Hes a pretty good Swede and just lost a big hand which is why hes short. Limper on my right calls.

Pot $100. Flop [Ks]

[Ts][3s]. Checked to me. I bet $80. The SB check raises all in to $245. The limper COLD CALLS.

WTF do I do?

call and hit a boat on the turn?

the thought of raising here makes me vomit a little in my mouth. call call call, you have position on the limper.

I start building the side pot right now with a raise of another $500 or so then I push any non spade Turn. I assume the cold caller has 33, KT, [As]

or a made flush. I'm ahead of 3 out of 4.

The guy's a good player.

He's just cold called a massive bet, with Ice to act behind him. Surely he's just flopped the flush and is trying to keep Ice in the pot?

I still call though and hope to boat up, as you are set to potentially double up if your boat hits.

If he's that good, is he really going to stack off with a flush when the board pairs?

I would reach over and change the [3s]

to a

. Then shove.

Seriously, my normal play would be to shove a non-spade turn, but I never play this deep. Here I definately call and then play some poker on the turn.

I'm thinking if villain has a flush he has to bet it on the turn. The problem is he will also bet 33 and probably KT, depending on the board. The fact that he didn't raise seems like he doesn't have a baby flush. He shouldn't slow play that on the flop IMO.
He may have the nut flush though...

Honestly, I would put him on 33 or the nut flush, small chance of [As]

with a K or T. The problem is if you just call him down if he bets the turn and river and fail to boat up, you are going to be calling off your stack. Ugh. Reraising the flop doesn't seem so bad now...atleast you are the aggressor and have decent equity against the nuts.

Cliffnotes: I don't know.

This one seems pretty easy to me - call and bet if he checks to you on the turn.
