    NICE ...you have to bet the flop imo ..another club would certainly kill the action, bet to get ur oppo to call for their draws.  "what will call the turn would call the flop" would be the case most of the time......so why wait for the turn......but people believe you more when you rep  the flop in an unraised-pot situation, seeing ur oppo had 89h he would have folded so you got the most out of this hand tho

    and if you check flop and turn youve missed 2 streets of value, effectively meaning its virtually impossible to get paid anything decent on the river with the pot being so small.

    You were up against the second nut flush heads up on a 3 to the flush board lol.

    He is up against top pair no kicker.

    FWIW I probably bet the flop or maybe raise the turn.

    You are basically only going to get action if oppo has set/two pair/high club/made flush.

    Need to build the pot early on if the oppo has one of the above, if he doesn't have any of those then you won't get paid regardless of how you play it.

    I'd bet flop myself, often best way to disguise flopped flush yesterday flopped the nut and got paid of by top pair and stacked them in a tourney :)

    looks stronger checking flop & then betting
