Too little information. Is this heads up? Is it early or late in the tourney? Is it cash? What are the blinds?
I assume it is cash. And that the blinds are .5/1?
I would call. He might have the flush - more likely he is just a caller with AT or maybe even a set of 6's.

All the info is there.
NL $100 = Ring (so not tourny)
Blind in NL$100 are normally $.50/$1.
Didn't bother to put in all the players who folded pre-flop.

Personally I think this is a coinflip call. With no previous hand experience with this guy it makes this really hard. The main part that tells me you should call is when he checked on the turn. However again if he's got the nut flush he could just have been trying to trap you. However then why would he push on the rvr? What would be the determining factor in my mind is how quickly or slowly he made those calls. Allowing that his internet connection wasn't an issue, that's what I would use to determine if I would call here. He might be scared of the flush with two-pair but resolved in his mind to either lose it all, or take down the pot right there.

If you've got the nuts on the river, why push and shove a hand off the pot that may call a decent sized lead bet like a set? If you've got a baby flush, you have to figure it's good, so making the other player fold by pushing isn't a good play, and there's the off chance you could be beaten by a higher flush, so why risk it all. I think you're winning more than your fair share here, unless he's the type of player to make goofy plays with big hands. Call and beat his...smaller set?

CALL!!!! No way I would put villain on a flush. If he had the flush he would have bet it on the turn most likely. He wouldn't want to give hero a chance for another card that might help him. My gut feeling is villian had 66 in the hole and just made his set. He does not have you on a set. Most likely he sees you as only having AJ in the hole. Villian might also have a J6 hand and just hit his 2nd pair. If he had you on AJ from your previous betting, then he figures he has you with two pair. But there is no way I can put villain on a flush.

i call here.
with no read on him i would guess that he either just made his set of 6's and think they are good or is trying to buy the pot. i suppose he could have two pair as well, but i doubt it.

Well I made a crying call thinking that I was beat by a nut flush. Villain turned over A4o for a pair of 4s... he was on a complete bluff for his entire stack.
It turned out well in the end but I thought I was down a buy-in. Thanx for the opinions. I thought that most people would say that this was a fold.

If villain has a flush they make a value bet. Not a push...good call.

I always try pushing in 1 out of 4 instances when I have the nut straight or flush. You should always have the nuts when pushing sometimes. Villain could have something they don't get away from too..a straight...a set...top two. And if doesn't matter if people fold...they don't have to call often for the profit to stay the same.
