TT decision vs flush flop
$1/2, card room, 8 max, $300 max buy. I've been at the table 3 orbits and lost 4 hands, very small pots.
V1 - Is known to me, middle aged Frenchman, can play well, can play loose, he's obviously happy to have a $900 stack in this game. As usual, he's quite chatty.
V2 - seemingly OMC, but that's only based on his minimal action in 3 orbits and age. $300
V3 - MAWG, no reads, he's left the table twice to smoke, $600+
H - $300 bc I've topped up quietly after each loss.
>>>>>>>>>>
V2 - UTG, opens to $20, which is his first bet or raise in 3 orbits
H - UTG+1 with TsTd, calls because there's too great a chance I'm behind QQ+ from the OMC
V3 - LJ calls, V1 - Bu calls
Flop: $80 - 579 all spades
V2 angrily checks, H pause checks, V3 insta checks, V1 thinks about 3 seconds and bets $75
V2 folds angrily
It's back to H - I have a T high 4 flush, BDSD and an over pair. My range on V1 is 4 flush with a big spade, pure air bc everyone else checked and he's the big stack, some sort of 1P combined with a SD/FD, small flush, 2P, or trips. IOW, I know the guy well enough that I know I can't narrow his range by much.
BTW - hi hand is $599 so someone with a 6s or 8s might want to see another card.
Fold, Call, Raise?

call and see what happens on the turn. if he bombs big on a brick id fold.
I think calling the turn is fine, especially with V3 still left to act.
Other thoughts:
--The HH promo is irrelevant, since presumably both hole cards have to play.
--When a nit opens UTG for x10 and is only 150bb deep, I'm likely folding from UTG+1 with TT.
Only one card has to play, but the pay out is halved. Unless the payouts are much larger, like the $2K hi hand they do at 5PM, I ignore them or my own benefit, but a lot of rec players absolutely play for those. This was a Friday night rec fest and a V with a hi hand draw may be more likely to go the distance.

My guide is that we both have to have at least 12X but I prefer a bit more. I was set mining at that point. And I don't have a lot of history to know for sure how nitty he is.
Thread's not gathering much interest so...
I shoved and took it down.
I don't know if it was the right thing to do, but I was afraid I would give up any FE if I waited or if another spade turned. I'm trying to not be results oriented.
