    Bet out on the flop for information and to build a pot if you do happen to spike the flush on the turn.

    I don't think you can call the raises, too easy to put someone on an overpair or top set.

    Personally I push it though I know it probably isn't the right play. A lot of the time the opponents will be smart enough to realize they don't have the nut flush. Not that you do either but they need your ace. But it's all personal preference, this was also a good fold if you don't like to gamble like that.

    Actually, after the reraise preflop, I think you can push here. You really only fear a set. You obviously want the loose idiot to call. You want the tight villain to fold fearing AA or KK with a heart. But if the tight villain calls with QQ or JJ here, you are almost 50% to take everyone's money with your overcards and nut flush draw.

    Calling is the worst option. I like pushing ... but this may be because I already saw the results.

    Also the call would commit you to the pot anyway, if you're gonna play this one you have to push.

    Yes, you can push there. If both of them call, you are getting odds to make your flush and overcards.
