    Default 300+ pot with ace high flush draw

    UTG bets 500 and all other fold...

    do you call and go for the flush?

    (btw this is the start of a tourny... everyone has 1500 chips)

    What are you stacks.

    What are your pot odds.

    What are the odds of improving?

    He seems to be betting $200 over the pot, which means if you call you are losing according to the poker theorem, so you should fold even though those 4 cards look tempting.

    Well... what is the flop? what was the action pre flop? do you have 1 or 2 over cards? What are this player's habbits? How many players after you?

    without any other info, I have to say no...

    Fold, there's probably circumstances where a call is the right move, but I'm hard pushed to think of them.

    Later in a tourney with differentiated chip stacks it may sometimes be right to reraise (a semi-bluff) or call though.
