Flopped low end of straight - now what?
Live hand at $300 buy-in NL table, Hawaiian Gardens.
Blinds $3/5. New guy to table ($400) raises to $10 UTG. UTG +2 ($250) calls. I ($400) call on the button with 7s8s. Flop comes the delicious 9TJ rainbow. UTG leads out $40. UTG + 2 goes all in ($235). UTG + 2 does not worry me. He would not do this with KQ. Do I call or push? |

Is it that simple? Doesn't playing it safe cost me EV from
QQ here? |

You can not flat call here. If you call you are committed. Since that is the case push. UTG calls the push if he would have called $235.

I agree with the posts here, just wanted to check though.
I did push, UTG folded, and later told me he had Kings - and would have called if I had just called! That $300 table can be quite a donkfest. |
