Default Pushing w strflushdraw, Party 25$

Had been playing for a few minutes when this hand came up.
No significant reads, but I think villain is slightly crazy (dont ask).

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 5 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

BB ($14.40)
UTG ($34.19)
<font color="#C00000">Hero ($28.02)</font>
<font color="#C00000">Button ($42.99)</font>
SB ($26.28)

Preflop: Hero is MP with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $1</font>, Button calls $1, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: ($2.35) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5, Button raises to $10, Hero is all-In [$22.02]</font>

Looks good to me (until villain shows me QK of hearts).

One thing- why did you bet $5 into a $2.35 pot?

edit: Probably has something to due with "crazy villain".

Given your stack size it's a routine push (even though you're drawing to the bottom end of the straight and an 8-high flush).

I bet 5$ to make it look like im stealing with a draw,
and provoke villain to come over the top.
People hate being pushed around by overbetting "crazies".
Also, I want to get as much $ as possible in on the flop,
while there's still two cards to come and I'm "ahead".
