Only about 18 hands in, but already it apears villian (Malevish) is super agg and v. loose. 3 betting very light. Later it transpired he was even more fishy than I suspected (showing down 58o after 3-betting etc).
VPIP probably of about 70% at this point (estimate).

Against a 4-flush i've got 71% equity if called.
Against a made flush I have ~33% equity if called.

This is one of the tougher spots you'll find yourself in with top set :confused:

To me at least, flopped flushes are so uncommon that while it is a part of MP2's range, it's certainly not his entire range. And even if that's the case, you're far from drawing dead.

So that's the only thing you're really scared of - if he has a 4-flush, a smaller set, or even an overpair, then you're doing great. So you pretty much always have to get this in.

MP will have flush a lot, however, his range is a lot wider than that. UTG+! may have a huge pair with a club so if we get it in 3-ways we should make money over the long run.

I can't see any good reasons not to get this all in.

Lol I think I learnt from my last HA, where I got slated for folding that set.

Here's how it turned out:

BB checks, UTG+1 bets t200, MP2 raises to t520, Hero raises to t1560 (All-In), 3 folds

Total pot: t1490

If Villian wasn't so agg it would have been a lot harder to ship at the time.

Cheers for the help
