I'm 6-tabling and have no read on villain. I don't really like this turn card but feel commited anyways. I can't give him a free card on the river and if I check and he leads out on the river I'm probably calling anyways. Is it all good?

Push flop.

You are pot committed no matter what happens on later streets. But not too much of a mistake

I don't get it. You give the big stack reasonable odds to draw to a flush, and when a flush card falls, you push? Might as well just push to start with.

Im pushing pre-flop. 12X BB, that standard raise left 25% of your stack in the middle, your almost commited already. I think youll get some loose calls from lesser hands, too, because it seems like a typical blind steal.

Pushing preflop is reasonable, though a standard raise can work as well.

Just push the flop.
