Another call or fold question for you all

The following hand happened about 20mins ago on a £100nl table.

Oppo was the reason i was at table and can very easily ship it in with t/p weak kicker etc but will also push on flush draws etc.

Both of us playing over 100bbs. me 117 bbs oppo 107bbs and the table is 4 handed with the other 2 players solid regs.

Gonna have to type HH again cos dont know how to post hands.

I raise utg with 4h 5h to £3

Folds around to oppo in bb and he calls 

flop comes down 3h 6h Qs

Oppo leads out for £2 and i raise to £9.88 at which point he ships it all in for a extra £94.18

I know i have a monster draw but just wondering how many players call £94.18 extra to win a pot of £214.62 ?

Considering i am almost dead if up against a flush draw but also taking into consideration that this is a big chance to take oppos stack before the other 2 regs on table get the chance and also the fact i know he would do same with AQ etc.

Anyways the result once again wasnt important to the question but i will tell you what is was to save anyone from wondering.

I tanked for a bit but eventually called.

He showed Qc 3c
I showed 4h 5h

Flop 3h 6h Qs   turn Ks  river 8h   and i won with the flush

So the question is Call or Fold ?

    If your playing that hand what sort of flop do you want?Imo you must be mad to fold.

    Def not the easiest call ever even though you have a massive draw because if he has AQ, KQ hearts or any top pair with fl dr your in real bad shape but given you say he does this with alot of other hands i call aswell.

    Just because you got a very good flop for your hand though dosnt mean you have to call off a extra 95bigs with only 12 invested like above poster said and i can see why your asking this question.

    NH.

    this is one for the maths experts (i am not one)

    If 2 flushing cards is a big part of his range then i guess its a sigh fold.

    But if im rolled properly, playing and running well, i click call fast.

    I always think in these situations you cant poss hope to flop a full house so THIS flop is what you played ure hand in the 1st place to hit with , so its a call every time imo , otherwise there is simply no point in playing hands like this in the first place xx

    My worry would be the same as yours here.  I dont want to snap to see he holds a pair and nut/superior heart draw.  Which is what I may expect from a standardish player.

    But with your exhisting reads I think I'm happy to snap it off.

    Given you say he would do this with bad hands such as TPWK I think it's a call, not the easiest though but you are obviously rolled for it lol

    BTW to post HHs you need to be on the forum in Internet Explorer, and copy and paste the HH  (Still from IE)

    I ain’t no maths expert but if you take away the fact that he may have two hearts then it’s a call. At least 52% with OPPO having 2 pr so 2/1 = snap

     

    If he has got two hearts then your drawing to 8 outs, 32% so it’s a fold.

     

    Lets face it if he got AQh then tough, but you can never ever fold this flop.

    Just get your money in as quick as possible thinking your 60% feels nice and cosy.

    We are not getting anywhere near 2/1, we need 44% equity to call

    If he has 2hearts we often have 14 outs unless he has Qh, in which case we usually have 8

    We are hardly ever as good as 60% unless he has a straight draw, we are less than 50% v 2pair, but we should have just about enough equity v this guy. I think raise folding this hand would suck though, if I think he shoves often here I prefer flatting flop to raising

    Also I dont agree we have to go broke if we open pre, that makes no sense to me,any deeper we prob should fold to the flop 3bet

    Good points mate.

    Although my hand looks massive it is not as massive as some replys my suggest taking into account what he could be holding and thats also the reason i tanked before making the call but imo in no way is this a snap call with only £12 invested as some have said.

    Thanks for the replys all

    Good flop yes mate but most cash hands you play you can play them through the streets and get a feel for the hand so just because i get a good flop it dosnt mean i have to go broke, after all like what has been said i might be drawing very thin.

    In my world if all our outs are clean with a SFD we are getting the price to call, right or wrong ?

    Flopping a straight flush draw leaves you 60% to hit either a straight a flush or indeed a straight flush. Snap call. Especially against a guy as aggro as this.
