Default AQs flops the nut flush draw

I just got back from a 2 week Vegas trip where I did pretty well overall but this hand bothers me
2/5 NL at the Wynn my first orbit at the table
I have 475 ` and my opponents have me covered
One limper, I raise on the cutoff to 25 with AQ hearts, the blinds call and the limper folds.
Flop 346 2 hearts.
SB bets 50 BB calls I should..

...tell us what you raised to preflop.

Assuming it was to 20-25, I call the flop. If you make any substantial raise, you're committed to putting all your chips in and you won't be a favorite.

Yea, I like just calling.

Just get there and then get chips in the pot.

calling and shoving are both fine. Unless you know they are very passive a non/pushing raise isnt an option.

Im actually going to go a step further and say calling is much better then pushing, to those that say this is "yawn, easy push" I think are just looking at relative draw strength and the typical situation that is being encountered and not really looking at the details of the hand.

I unfortunately have to run out,I'll give my reasoning later.

all your cards seem live, push. calling makes your hand too obvious therefore zeros your chances of getting paid off when hitting your flush. an ace can possibly get you in trouble w/ the bb (ace-rag) here, you need to push him out. i'm guessing pocket pr for the sb.

when i said push, i really meant make it $200. $400 looks kinda fishy.
