I want to puke. I am not good enough to fold, but I expect to see the SF.

On second thought, wouldn't a combo draw have raised you on the flop? Screw him. Call.

I don't know if I fold this. Assume villain is competent then what is he drawing to when he calls the flop? What do you put him on b/c he can't have the king high flush draw either. He could have a combo hand like 4c5x6x7c but when villains rep such small ranges I usually look them up unless I have a good read. By looking at the stack sizes it appears that you have been beating up on villain so maybe he decided to take a stand at the wrong time.

or 4+tabling and time out. I would probably donk call, but by no means saying that is correct.

so what did he have? I ask cause i am pretty sure you called. 90% this is str flush =(

these hands and another example that makes me punch the keyboard is when you flop top set for a boat and then on RIVER BOOM! caller POTS IT! I always call there cause I suck and almost everytime they flip over QUADS

I have never seen anyone semi bluff with straight flush blockers before at these limits, and I think it will be a long time before I do. People just dont do that. Maybe at higher limits, I dont know, but not here. But I guess we always have to keep an open mind for all possibilities...

straight flush blocker plays are an urban legend. you'd need both blockers before you could make that play. oh wait!!
