I'd have gone for a check-raise here. As you've played it though, 3-bet push.

[/ QUOTE ] I'd like to hear others thoughts on this play. Sure you can take down the (REALLY) tiny pot, but this way you're really not getting any value out of your big hand. By 3 bet pushing, it looks more like a SB special 2 pair or something of the sort. We would be happy to take it down on the flop (with more money in the pot) but if we get called, we have "a bajillion outs." |

Re: Playing from the blinds: 9Ts
If you are going to fold vs. resistance with 2nd pair and 4 to a flush, then you need to start folding these hands pre-flop. Otherwise you are hoping to flop made hands, and that doesn't happen enough for you to be profitable.

The question is, do I have enough FE to make this worthwhile often enough? |

A) No tone, real, implied, imagined or otherwise.
B) Reply was not to OP, but to responder who said fold. |

I default to push - but might soft play if I sense my FE dropping like the rain has been lately... No way I'm folding. |
