A little background: I have experience in higher games than this and I'm usually a tournament player. Though I get by on ring games if I give them a chance... Here's the hand: First one at the table (so no reads whatsoever)
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (9 handed)

Final Pot: $57.55
For some reason I thought this was a bluff push. Generally a player at these limits will raise a flush draw on a flop like that, right? Am I giving him too much credit by assuming he would raise this flop with a flush draw? Calling this all-in is assuming he DOESN'T have the flush and is trying to bluff the pot....
Thoughts? Comments? Is it WAY past my bedtime or what??
