Not many hands on opponetns, but all of them look like 35-50 vpip fish so far. Do you like the idea of just calling the flop here? I'm interested in the thoughts of others...
My reasoning was that the fish behind me won't really fold any draw if i just call, and might even ship if my call might look weak to someone. Ofc i'm never folding here; interesting what happened ott... As noone shoved, i put both of them on a sd that got there, but they both feared a flush so i basically bluffed with top set?

Thoughts?

When you 3 bet preflop and just call this flop I can see villain putting you on kings with a flush draw rather than aces, so yes straight draws that hit the turn will fold. However it's likely that hands like A6/A5/66/55 will also fold to this turn card that would otherwise have shoved the flop drawing dead so it's not always wise to slow play the flop.

You can't even really fold the turn even if a super bad card hits like this one, so sometimes all you're allowing are the draws to fold if the board pairs.

If the board wasnt so wet, say with no flush draw showing I would like a flop call a lot more.
