Still learning what to do it situations like this... I figure the best I can hope for here is a coin flip; worth the risk considering the blinds?

Why not push preflop? Are you hoping he might fold 2nd pair postflop?

He has no folding equity preflop. If he(opponent) has say two overcards, he may fold them on the flop when he might otherwise have hit them on the turn.

Search for the Stop'n'go. Fossilman preaches it.

interesting idea. i've used the stop n go before, but never in a thought out process like this.

do you really push on any flop? ie. AKQ all spades?
