Easy muck. What are you beating that should have pushed? People at tables that small will call you down with a tiny flush--don't give them the same courtesy.

what really makes this an easy laydown is that if your opponent does not have a flush, he will have a set or the ace of spades, giving him a 30% or more chance of beating you. here you are either a massive underdog or a relatively small favorite, so a fold is definitely in orer.

Default easy call

rarely will a player with a mde flush push all in here. they would get sneaky with it. your against an As, set, or 2 pair. without some serious player history easy call on all 3.

You don't say how big the pot was before SB shoved in, but from the stack sizes I assume it was much less than 38 bucks. In my experience the massive overbet means he is very likely to have a hand that has outs against a flush but doesn't want to be called. I would call all but the most timid or straightforward players here.

I don't think it's that easy a fold. The only reason to go all in here is if he is afraid of another flush card hitting. so he probably has either high pair a big pair or a small flush, or a bluff is not imposible. It is probably more likley that you have him beat. So i'd say going either way is fine. If you are one to take risks with a small edge then you could call, but folding is probably better if you think you will have better spots, plus you know nothing about the player yet.

Easy call. If you fold this you shouldn't be playing No Limit.
