Is it ever generally correct to jam your own flush draws in a cash game full ring? For example I'm seeing players with Ax and sometimes any two suited shoving on a 3 to the flush board regardless of what's out there. I'll be holding something like a flopped straight, a set, or 2P and they happily shove all in with air hoping to catch a flush.
This is a trend I've noticed more in online poker than live (specifically in the micros as I work on my various BR challenges) in the past few months.
But to me it doesn't seem to be a long term winning move since we can expect to hit our flush roughly 1 out of 3 times. I can see perhaps when short it being worth it or when facing a larger pot with more than 2 other players in the hand, but against a single opponent it seems like a losing play.
