Re: Burningyen\'s bustout hand (how would you play it?)
If villian plays well I'm assuming he'll take a stab at this flop with any two, and the SB might be compelled to put in a c/r bluff given that this flop has likely missed your hand. IMO that's the best way to get the money in on the flop with the most amount of fold equity. I think things get a little trickier if the SB folds for the reasons already mentioned.
Personally, I think it's a little too early to be pushing this draw if the SB doesn't come along. I like Gumzilla's lines, especially against this type of player. There's still a good chance you can outplay him on the turn and milk a bet from him on the flop, plus you can still get away from your hand with minimal damage if the turn is ugly..
Things change if the villian is the type of player to drastically overbet a pot, although it doesn't seem like he's the player. Then I'd be more temped to c/r nearly allin.
