Playing with the nuts?? All in - or Check it

What do you do?
You : Ac - Kc
Flop: 10c-Jc-Qh

You go all in...or wait it out? Just happened to me...i went all in want nobody called..pissed me off

depends..how many players on the flop, who am i playing against , did i raise , position...etc.etc...i probably dont go all in on the flop tho..

dont need to go allin on the flop, but definitely bet it. Someone likely has 2 pair, or at least a piece of the flop. get AI by the river though if you still holding the nutz. Plus we need mroe information than u provided.

Bet 2/3 pot on flop. Bet 2/3 pot on turn. Push river.

The only likely way for you to lose this is if the board pairs and someone hits a boat, so you can probably slow play if you want to. I'm betting to build a pot though.

If you just push the flop nobody without 2 pair or better will call. If you just check you won't get the pot big enough to push by the river.

or flush


I make a standard cbet here. 2pair/set will raise me either here or on the turn and then it will be pretty easy to get it allin.

He has the nut flush draw, actually a gut shot royal.

The only way he can lose to a flush is runner runner heart and someone holding 2 hearts

As most everybody said: NEITHER. Make a bet that will be called by somebody trying to chase or if they have a marginal hand and are looking to suck out on you. In other words, 2/3 pot on flop, 2/3 pot on turn and slam river if they are still in the hand and the board has not paired. If the board pairs, proceed at your own risk and beware of the boat.

yea thats usually my plan..but it screws my mostly.

I had AA
He had KK

Flop: KKA

I went all in...then killed myself..hahah

Its pretty much impossible to recommend a move without having at least the HH, and preferbly some reads.

The advice is different depending on position, number of people in the flop, preflop action, stack sizes etc...
