AQs flops the nut flush draw
 

I just got back from a 2 week Vegas trip where I did pretty well overall but this hand bothers me
2/5 NL at the Wynn my first orbit at the table
I have 475 ` and my opponents have me covered
One limper, I raise on the cutoff to 25 with AQ hearts, the blinds call and the limper folds.
Flop 346 2 hearts.
SB bets 50 BB calls I should..

...tell us what you raised to preflop.

Assuming it was to 20-25, I call the flop. If you make any substantial raise, you're committed to putting all your chips in and you won't be a favorite.

Yea, I like just calling.

Just get there and then get chips in the pot.

Re: AQs flops the nut flush draw
 

calling and shoving are both fine. Unless you know they are very passive a non/pushing raise isnt an option.

i would go all in w/out a specific read that made calling superior.

I would call

Re: AQs flops the nut flush draw
 

My old style would just call, but either I would not end up with the best hand or I would get no action if the flush comes. By raising occasionally on draws it makes your hands not as readable and may give you action later when you have a made hand. So, if you have been quiet at this table lately a raise of around $100 may take the pot right here, if not you have position and outs.

I think both calling and shoving are fine in such a situation.
Another consideration in such a case is, are you the kind of player who if doubles up in a capped buyin game, can just [censored] the table...like just rape it
I am willing to take gamble early on in my session in a capped buyin game, even if it was somewhat -ev.
If the game was a no cap buyin then i would be more apt to call, if the game is a capped buyin, then i would shove in hopes of doubling up, so i could cover table.
