Default Re: Dream Jackpot

I don't know, but your thought process is way off on this hand.

You're not raising preflop to get people out, you're raising so that if the perfect situation arises (everybody calls) they'll be putting in 2 bets instead of one. Would you rather just win the blinds?

You shouldn't be scared of the flush when only two hearts are on the board. You should be overjoyed that someone might give you a lot of action while you hold top set, not to mention your odds for drawing to a full house are quite good on the off chance another heart comes, and that player has 2 hearts in his hand.

Sorry I didn't answer your question, but you should be thinking about why you actually raise with AA, or call with T9s after 3 limpers.
