I've been playing a lot at the low limit tables on UB lately, so I understand that 95, 85, 85, 67 are all hands which opponents could play here. Moreover, I realize that flush draws will do this all the time... and even moreover there are a lot of other hands that will do this that you beat. With your short stack though, I would just put it all in.

I would raise more preflop too. At the .05/.10 tables you can get away with 8-10x bb bets.

This is a really ugly flop for your pocket rockets. 6-7 completes the straight, there could be a flush draw out there, and somebody could have a set. This is still a tough hand to let go of, but I think it would be best. They still have the turn and the river to complete their straight if they have lets say 7-9 or something.

You can't be thinking this while you play a hand.

The more I think about it, the more I like a push all in.

[heretowin]

That makes sense. I'd either push all-in or fold, don't cold call.

[Malachii]

Um, you've got a stack of five dollars. Of course you push.

[nietzreznor]

Given your shortish stack, I don't mind a push here, esp. if you think SB will come along. If you were deeper, then I might lean towards a fold--reads would be helpful here.

[David04]

Okay thanks for the comments. I pushed, and he called with 67 for the floped straight.

[heretowin]

Sweet I called it.
