Default Standard or Stupid? ($22)

Actually, that isn't my question.

How often do you think this play will work against the average $22er. The only hands I've shown down so far are AA(pf), and KK(river). Are they calling with a strong Q? How 'bout a weak K? Will they call with a flush draw?

i assume you were going for a checkraise all in on the flop, and missed. At the 22s, i think you'll get looked up more often than not by any K and a decent Q. But thats ok, because i'm pushing this too.

I'd prefer a pot sized bet to a push here. I think you decrease your fold equity by overbetting this pot. 22ers are some PARANOID people.

I don't know about the average 22er, but it's a fairly obvious desperation bet to me. Someone donkbet me twice the pot on a J high flop and I pushed over with KK. I see flush draws and weak top pairs play like this a lot (or they go in on the flop).

So what I'm saying is, I think you need to be careful who you try this move on. I would like it a lot more if it were HU and you knew enough to confirm the fact that your villains are at BEST "average."

I JUST realized the turn paired my hand. I was making this push purely on the flush draw, is that still OK?
