Nut Flush loses to runner-runner without paired board

[joelgittel]

Here's a good one. Heads-up. Raise preflop on the button with ATs. Flop comes 45Ks. Checked to me I bet about 1/2 of pot, he calls. Turn comes 7s. Opponent bets pot. I think about pushing but have just a small concern about straight flush, plus I want him to bet the river in case he's bluffing. I just call. River the 6s -- yuck. He bets most of his stack which is about the size of the pot -- I have him covered. I just call to see the bad news -- Kc 8s.

Would you push? You have to call... right?

Gross result,but cant be afraid of strt flush.I myself had a feeling late in the Party Escalade tourney when i hit nut flush on river, A good player pushes on me with 15 players to go,i thought hard and thought something was up. I called and he shows srt flush. I wont lay down nut flush unless a fh is obvious, and i wont fold a pair of kings preflop.Better luck next time
