Default Re: Big draw with awkward stack sizes

[ QUOTE ]
Pushing seems to indicate a strong flush draw (either nut flush draw or oesf draw). If you had flopped a set/two pair, would you just push here? I doubt that.

Make a 2/3 pot-sized raise. If he pushes, then you have a decision to make about whether or not you want to gamble. If he simply calls, you have position on any turn and can easily check behind if you don't improve.

fwiw, these stack sizes are shallow enough that i can comment with some level of experience, and i think pushing is correct here. the value of your hand goes down significantly on a whiffed turn, yet at the same time i dont think you can (or necessarily want to) "get away" on the turn. theres no raise other than a push, so just push.
