Sam Greenwood 4-way River Bluff
I just watched this hand from a Triton cash game where Sam Greenwood wins a big pot with 4 players by bluffing on the river. While Sam's bluff on the river makes sense since he's at the bottom of his range and has more AcX than his opponents (aside from BB), I really don't understand his flop call. Sam calls flop with 6-high and a gutshot with no BDFD. Given that 3 players call in front of him on 332cc, it seems very likely that at least one player has a FD which means he only has 3 clean outs to the nuts. Can somebody explain his flop play? It seems like it's certainly a losing call, even with fish in the pot.

Closing the action really good odds very deep with some possibility to take the hand down later depending on what develops. We need 20% equity and implied odds are quite good. I agree it's marginal
There's no chance you have 20% equity here, and the implied odds aren't great. You only have a nutted hand on 3 cards, and there are some reverse implied odds for when your opponent boats up.
I very much agree on second look with the paired 2 flush board its not great at all. Think Sams just being OOL here
Sam's open range is really tight here. This is low frequency I assume. And I think he can do a lot of check calling with AA and KK among other value hands. So he needs calling hands that can actually be bluffs at some point in order to balance his range. This seems like a good candidate.
He of course has implied odds as well and with a 6% (on turn card) hes bound to get action if a 4 hits the deck. And he could even stack an opponent if the opponent has exactly A5s. So yes although probably marginal I guess his call makes sense.
