I've just been playing for around 2-3 months, just wondering if this was the right play. HUD stats and my experience tell me Villain is a nit, and his UTG 4-bet range is probably QQ+, AKo, AKs. I don't think his regular UTG range is polarized either. Anyway, I checked the pot odds for a flush draw and it was the right price, but what other criteria is there to assess this play? Thanks!

That's a very large 3bet. If I got raised over that I'm instantly tossing that in the muck. Not to mention that 4 bet is just massive lol

Call is better than shove I guess with position if you can't let it go.

Yeah no probably no fold to the turn bet. You absolutely could be ahead (probably splitting), and also you are redrawing to the nuts. Not to mention kinda committed at this point, no?

I think w/ the 4-bet sizing, if you're just calling that pre, then you need to just shove flop. There's really no bet sizing that makes sense at the point.

As played, you have to call the turn, since you're committed.

Thanks guys, got it. I guess I'll have to work on bet sizing.
