This is a straight sometimes and a flush reasonably often, but it's also some weird 99-ish hand or total junk pretty regularly.

I'm calling it, although I'd fold AQ and 54. You've too much of a hand to put him on the nuts right now.

edit: yeah, the dude bet the pot and got 2 callers, push the flop and it's not close

thanks for the response. I totally agree with reraising/pushing the flop, but I decided to see the turn and go from there, at the same time I wanted to be able to get away from this hand (JUST DIDNT FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT WITH THAT FLOP) . Now I was ready to dump this hand , but the overbet looked so suspicious to me.

Trying to get away with flopped sets is REALLY, REALLY, REALLY STUPID.

[pokerraja]

By the way I think pushing the flop is wrong. After seeing that flop all I could think about is dont go broke in an unraised multi-way pot. It was family (6 person) pot after all. I have position, and I wanted to see some more cards and betting patterns before I make a big decision. Is this flawed thinking?

[lastchance]

Hero is stupid for slowplaying flopped straight/set and not raising on flop. At the same time, I doubt Hero can fold here.

Edit: Ok you have 44. Push the flop!!!
