    I just glanced at this one and thought "This is silly, he obviously folds becuase he's got overs and a gutshot agianst 2 betters." "Oh, and he's got that royal flush draw..."

    Your choices are just so sexy here.

    I like calling, trying to make the hand and have the other two possibly get aggro right into your A-T straight. But if you take it three ways to the turn, you can have absolute confidence in your K outs and possibly even the A outs.

    I like raising more I think. If you just raise it to 10, you might keep both players in and set up a nice bet on the turn where they may just fold to your action OR you may make a great hand and fillet them both. Also, raising allows your opponents to declare the strength of their hands one more time.

    I like raising in situations like this. It gives you information about your opponents hand (although if you hit your straight or flush outs you probably ownt need the info), but more importantly disguises your hand and makes it much more likely your opponents will call off their stack if you hit a flush.

    Although its not really relevant to this hand, another reason why i like to raise in situations like this is that it usually eliminates the bluffers, which wouldn't pay you off when you chase outs on implied odds.

    Id probably just call here. If you make your draw youll win the hand and you want as many people in as possible, so id just call to avoid losing someone and to avoid some rediculous re-raise situation.

    A ridiculous re-raising situation is far from a bad thing. Also, just calling reveals your flush draw. So it's a huge pot with a straight, you don't know if your A or K outs are good AND you probably won't win much with the flush against an aware opponent.

    Landshark's call was fine. The odds were there by the time it got to him, b/c of his short stack.

    Well, he THOUGHT he had the odds. Poor guy's spindly little weak draw got blindsided by Trip's uberdraw.

    Even on a 2 flush to the royal board?

    I would raise it another $4 on flop here. You are getting an SD, 2 overs and an FD. It still a drawing hand so you want to try and win it right there if possible. I'm guessing MrBig has TP with a kicker and the shark is on
    a draw.

    Edit: you went AI, nice!

    I like pushing here. It's already a decent-sized pot, so you don't mind taking it down right away. You also don't mind a call. Your hand will likely be worse after the turn hits, and if the flush draw comes in, you may not get the action you were hoping for anyway.

    i agree 100% a reraise here usually hides the flush/str8 draw...which when you hit and check usually leads to a sweet pot. but didnt really matter here because both called your all in.

    if you have a 2way nut draw you usually want to build the pot, not take it right there.

    The pot is built and he has a pretty big edge.
