Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converterPreflop: Hero is MP with [4s], [As]. UTG calls, Hero raises, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.Pretty standard for me to raise any suited A in MP on a short table.Flop: (8 SB) [6d], [7s], [8s] (4 players)SB bets, Hero calls, SB calls.This is the main part I am concerned about. I have the nut flush draw and the ass end of the straight draw. The only card I really want to see out here is a spade as I feel anything else is going to get me into trouble. SB bets and BB raises, I feel I need to call this first off because the pot is huge and I am getting fantastic implied odds if I hit my flush. After my call though it's 3 bet and capped. I just had no clue at this point.Turn: (10 BB) [5c] (3 players)SB bets, BB calls, Hero calls.Turn comes down the 5 but not a spade. SB bets out again and BB calls again. Now the question is do I raise in this spot or do I just flat call this and check call the river if I don't hit my spade. I really didn't know what to do here.River: (13 BB) [Jh] (3 players)SB bets, BB calls, Hero calls.River comes down no apparent help to the board and I miss my flush. SB again bets but the pot is to big for me to fold now so I call. I know not to fold this river, it's really the flop/turn play I was concerned with.Final Pot: 16 BB

Raising this turn sucks.Call preflop.3-bet flop.Turn & river are standard.

Agree with wrto.mono, why do you raise suited A4 here instead of limping? I could see a steal raise on the button.Just curious.

Why are you raising this pre-flop? Reasons?
