As you can see we are both fairly deeply stacked, if I had a standard stack size I'd have just shoved here if I wasn't already all in by this point.

However I have very little experience playing with with a larger stack size against someone else with an even bigger stack in cash games. So with a King high flush in this spot what would your course of action be?

Personally I'd probably call incase he had a suited ace, but is that just me being a bit scared of losing money short term?

Villians stats matter here, even over small sample. if he has fishy stats then i would probably shove river since plenty of worse flushes in his range will call and only the A high flush beats you.

Push all-in. It is pretty thin, but I think I'd do it.

7 flush combos beat you
You beat at least 10 flush combos

People at 2nl are not going to be folding flushes often enough to where pushing all-in will be a mistake.

I agree with what's been said above. The check raise on the turn makes me worry a little, but not enough to overcome the fact that at .01/.02 he probably has enough combinations to make it profitable for you to push.

I thought I'd put the stats in when I posted it, apologies he was: 27/18/4

Also thanks to the others who answered, a shove probably would have been the best course of action as it's probably much more likely he has a lower flush. I just need to stop getting scared when I've got a larger stack.

yes, for those stats its definitely a shove. he obviously has something decent but probably weaker than yours. what did he show up with?

He ended up showing with 4,10 of spades so as many people stated he had the lower flush.
