You are dealt with suited cards, and there is an A. Flop gives you flush draw without hitting any of it. You bet, and ur bigger stack opponent shoves all in, what would u do? I know Ivey bust out from 1 million big drop because of this.

If its a tourney, I would fold.It also depends on you. Is this a raised pot preflop? If not, the villain could be TP and drawing for flush also. If this is raised preflop, You villain is ahead with overpair and jammed it.

You could also check what is the table image of your villain. If he is tight, fold. if not. You can call with 11 outer (hit your A or flush) that is around 44%. and you dont know if he is ahead or not. best choice is to call.

I only answered based fro your post. It would be different if I know the stack sizes how many BB you have and also the villain. Cheers!

Lot depends on the call. Fact you are drawing to the nut high flush sways to a call. It can be an easy fold as well.

You gave us just a vague idea of what is happening.. There would need to be much more information. Just based on that I would go with the read you have on the player.. Can you give us more of an idea the circumstances around when this exact situation happened?

In my experience I will only call an all in flush draw if I have high paint cards and if and only if my stack is bigger than the opponent.
It's almost a 50/50 flip if your opponent has top pair.
Determine how far you are from the money and if it is worth the call.

I've lost a numerous amount of times with an ace high flush draw, so it's fine to fold.
