Very interesting spot. Limped pot preflop and now he's raising your raise on the flop. Not sure that anyone does this on a draw. That's the big question because you need to be pretty sure your 5 high flush draw is live. I would probably favor a check and call anything up to a 1/2 pot bet and pray that the 4s peels off on the river so you don't have to wonder if your flush draw is good.

I would fold preflop. 100 percent of the time.I would never shove the flop with just a gut shot and 5 high flush draw after the guy 3 bets, thus would probably call..Turn, I think I have to check here and try to draw for a relatively cheap price..

wait I remember why we can't shovel.... this is pot limit. oops.
Wrong. You can actually shovel in Pot Limit HE on the third Saturday of each month. I still wouldn't do it though.

i would just check, and look to see how much he wants to bet...basically, then, it comes down to a math problem, it's just that simple because he obviously has a hand and isn't folding

IF it's pot limit, then check call. Right?

insta call, evaluate river, if we hit our hand in any way, insta pot.

Doesn't that make our hand very transparent? Against a thinking player, I don't think this will be a profitable line in the long run.

what would you like us to do then? c/f is an option if he pots it, but just about any other bet we have to call for the price, with the implied odds making up some of the difference...c/r is very dangerous because we are up against a made hand almost every single time here, and since it's pot-limit we can't raise enough to force a big laydownif we hit our hand and check the river he may not bet anywaysi agree c/c is very transparent but i don't see a more profitable way to play it
