Bet more on the flop. At this level, it is an easy call, this is a flush draw at least 40% of the time.

Yeah, a $240 flop bet there Screams of a blocking bet as if you had the flush draw. I do it all the time with people who would never recognise it. If that's what you were going for, gh. Shove!!!

I can't agree more about betting more. It really surprised me at my low flop bet, with that said I ran into pocket aces and was just curious if anyone would drop it at that point. Thanks!

Maybe, but only if after betting much more on the flop. With the weak flop bet you didn't gain the kind of info a larger bet would have provided you.

Now, it's a call since he would have a draw more often than his actual holdings in this hand.

Even with a larger flop bet you should call.

Yeah thanks, I pretty much thought that was the thought throughout.
