So, I am at the limpiest most passive calling station table in the world. to put in in perspective a few hands ago on a board of TT55K that got checked down to the river in a 5 way pot, a guy bet half the pot with Ace high and got called by 3 callers who all played the board and he scooped a pretty big pot with ace hi....you can't make this stuff up.
So, blinds are 100/200 and I'm in the BB with about 40k in chips. 4 people limp into my BB and I look down at and check my option. Pot contains 1000.
Flop comes
weeeeeee!
sb leads out for 700.
I decide not to mess around and raise it up to 2,100.
folds to the button who flat calls without much thought. he has about 18k sb folds.
I immediately put him on the This guy is the definition of loose passive. I also know that there is probably no bet size on the turn that will cause him to fold the nut flush draw....so I decide to check fold if the turn is a club and check call if the turn is not a club...

I decide to check and let him bluff at it if he missed his draw, and possibly think he is value betting if he made a straight...and just in case he flopped a bigger flush I'll save myself the agony of a check-raise.
well, he overbets the pot for 7,500 which is also about half his remaining stack. because he is generally so loose passive, it is hard for me to suspect a bluff here...but I suppose even passive players bluff sometimes when they miss their draw and their opponent is playing weak.
is this a snap call? tank-call? tank-fold?
