I'm not folding here.

He is betting like 60% pot so we only need to be good 28% of the time or so. I would expect most flush draws to bet off on the flop, we have two relevant blockers and I would expect villain to have lots of AcX hands (that bluff). Yes you will run into a better flush alot but you will win often enough to make it a profitable call.

Even being a CL, I would hardly call the PF raise with such hand. Once we get involved into that particular hand - yes, no way to fold on the River ...

Raise PF, as played, strange raise if he has anything other than club flush, because your limp / call range hits this board pretty well. By strange, I mean if he's bluffing with 9T or something, it's a pretty bad bluff considering the action, your range, and the price he's giving you.

He calls w/ someone left to act on the turn, which indicates he likely has a draw. Then he shoves when the 3rd flush card hits giving you amazing odds to call. He either has a bad bluff, or a better flush. Really odd he wouldn't bet that flop w/ a flush draw though considering the texture. It's $4 MTT so who knows what these people are thinking, so a call is pretty std I think.

Yes, you call here, you got the flush and the opponent is trying to surprise you with the three of a kind that he got from the flop. But you surprised him more!
