a flop overbet

5/10 6 max. we're currently 4 handed and I've been here for 6 hands.

UTG limps, I make it 45 on the button with J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG has about 850 to start the hand and I cover.

the SB who covers calls, and the BB folds.

Flop is 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

SB checks, UTG leads for $125. I shove.

is there any other way to play it?

does flatcalling the flop have any merit?

Because your straight draw is not disguised when it hits, and the flush draw is always pretty obvious I would say no to flat calling. Alot of the time here UTG will have a big pair he will fold (10-10 to QQ, even 88, or 77).

well stated. I dunno, I probably shouldn't have posted it given it seems like a slam dunk. if we were say 50BB deeper though?
