I'll play AXs from the button and the button-1 if there are folds to me.
I'll then try to buy the button with a 3xBB and attack the blinds from there.

I don't play for the flush value unless there are 3 plrs limping ahead of me. This means if there are 1 or 2 plrs limping, I fold AXs. Obviously, I fold AXs to any PFRs.

Flopping a full flush is something like a 25 to 1 long shot. Flopping a 4-flush is like 5 to 1. (I have to check my odds, I might be way off) and then you have a 3 to 1 draw. To get paid on flush value your need to
extract at least $20 from pot for each flush you see. Not easy against
one or two TAG plrs. Your odds of making the flush draw + A over are
a 12 outer which is like 45% from the flop.

Having said all that, I'll break my own rules and play them out of position
- usually its a leak.
