Had been playing for a few minutes when this hand came up.
No significant reads, but I think villain is slightly crazy (dont ask).

Looks good to me (until villain shows me QK of hearts).

One thing- why did you bet $5 into a $2.35 pot?

edit: Probably has something to due with "crazy villain".

Given your stack size it's a routine push (even though you're drawing to the bottom end of the straight and an 8-high flush).

I bet 5$ to make it look like im stealing with a draw,
and provoke villain to come over the top.
People hate being pushed around by overbetting "crazies".
Also, I want to get as much $ as possible in on the flop,
while there's still two cards to come and I'm "ahead".
