Im playing in my weekly league Tournament and the blinds are 25/50, I have about T2600, A couple of players limp in ahead of me and I find AQs(Hearts). I decide that with the Blinds this low, I'll Limp in and hope to flop a big hand or get out if I flop nothing and preserve my chips for later when the blinds are more meaningful.

Flop comes 3-5-7 (all hearts) UTG bets out T200, Other limper Calls, I decide to slow play my nut flush and smooth call

Turn brings another 5, UTG checks, Other limper bets T400... What should I do?

I would have raised on every street. To 25o preflop, 1/2 pot on the flop and turn.

thanks,

i did spring to life on the turn and raised to T1100... my opponent called and an Ace hit the riv. He checked.... Would any one just check down the Flush? Value bet?

It seems like you play too passive. Raise preflop. Raise on the flop. He likes his hand now and is probably going to try and protect it from someone with just the Ace of hearts. Don't wait for a scary overcard, pair on the board, or another heart to hit the turn and have it kill your action from this guy.

If you played it differently all your chips might already be in before the river, but yes, if you're at the river and you still have chips but he seems scared of the ace, value bet.

with that perfect flop as 1st to act i would check/call. but in your late position i would have raised.

probably just min raised, but i woulda have left the door open for someone to come back over the top with a set, or 2 pair etc....

I also want people to think that if i did flop thenut flush i would be slowplaying it, which is why i'm raising here, for value and for some form of disguise.
