K8 on BTN. Not the worst hand to steal the blinds. Get a called. Hit Two pair OTF. CB, called by villain. So I put him on AX to call that CB. Turn is a flush. Kind of scary for me. that is why I slow down. OTR, it was a fold. Not sure why I called, maybe because it was silly little bet. But, the issue is, once the board is flushy, I slow down a lot. Not sure what is the percentage of time that someone hits his flush but that slow me down. what is your thought process when the board is flushy and you want to find the range of the opponent?
Do you think CB OTT could push him away? he had 75 fold to turn cbet but that would not push him out with his AX hand. if turn was not heart, I would shove.
