Re: Flopped flush draw on failed blind steal - call push?
You're a 2-1 dog and you're getting 1.7-1 on a call, so it's a fold.

Re: Flopped flush draw on failed blind steal - call push?
Yeah, fold. He might be on a draw as well, but your hand can't hold up against anything. Especially not for the price you're getting and the amount of your stack it will consume.
(Also, are there antes? If there are you might think about open-pushing from the button on your steals.) |

What do you mean 2-1 dog?
I realize I may sound stupid. But how do you know what kind of a dog he is w/o knowing what hand he's up against? |

Re: Flopped flush draw on failed blind steal - call push?
You're 2-1 to hit a flush. If you miss your flush you have 6-high, and thus can not win. If your opponent has any pair higher than sixes you're a 2-1 dog. If your opponent has a higher flush draw you're even more than a 2-1 dog. The only situation where you're NOT at least a 2-1 dog is if your opponent has absolutely nothing, which will be the case rarely enough that you can assume you're a 2-1 dog in this spot.
