These are 2 hands where both I and opponent had flush, this time I will do exception and show results, because I am really interested how it should be played from both sides.

Funny thing is that both were vs. same opponent and between them were just about 15 hands at that table.

Opp: 50/9/1.7 fish

1) well played. 99 and a fullhouse is very unlikely compared to a worse flush. he played donk/call and then he donked the turn again. with 55 99 he would have 3bet the flop right away. this stop and go play does really indicate the flush. cap turn and cap river is fine :)

2) that's way to weak and really discaccording to hand nr. 1) when you see yourself ahead of him, which is the case with a flush, bet the turn again. he 3bet IP and could himself just have a single flushdraw that he intends to take a freecard with on the turn. i would play bet/3bet the turn and if he caps, then call him down. cap flop and check turn on a blank is a inconsistent play. either you are ahead and play cap bet or you ain't and according to that, you play call 3bet and then check/calldown from there on.
