i'd take the free card. i don't see villain calling that raise and folding to a turn push very frequently. T8 just got there, and nothing too scary for Jx just happened.

i would have pushed the flop with the pot already containing 30% of your stack, you should run the board or use your FE to take down the pot, otherwise the turn decision becomes much tougher.

The pot is still small, I would make a larger raise or just call, t250 is not enough to make the guy fold in a pot that size.

Given how you played it, I would take the free card on the turn to hit one of your supposed 15 outs. If you miss, you won't be crippled, though I think I would prefer moving in on that flop.

I'm confused... What street are you talking about?

Re: $109 - KQd flops inside straight flush in a family pot....
 

I call flop. You like other people in, and you could easily start a little calling chain. I don't mind the raise though.

Re: $109 - KQd flops inside straight flush in a family pot....
 

I call this. If he bets &gt;t150 I push, but I don't want to steal this pot getting at minimum 6-1 odds.

Re: $109 - KQd flops inside straight flush in a family pot....
 

Call the flop. Why knock out people behind you who are probably going to build you a bigger pot? You have plenty of outs.

In your situation, check behind on the turn, see if you hit any of your outs, and see what the villain does OOP on the river. If you miss, and he checks, I'm probably going all in to take the pot away from him. What hand that he can call an all in with is not worth betting either the turn or the river?
