I felt like pushing pf would have been overkill for for my hand. On the other hand, it opens me up to this. Thoughts about pf and the flop?

I like PF, and I fold the flop.

i think pre-flop is fine. most of the hands that will call a push will push anyway, and playing a flop in position is not terrible.

i would call the push. you almost certainly have 7 outs, often 10, and you're ahead sometimes.

Without a read, you absolutely have to fold on this flop. No need to put your money into this pot with A high here. I also don't mind how you played this PF. You're right, pushing would be overkill here. The only time I'm pushing this is if I have been uber-aggressive on the bubble and I might get a weak spite call from the SB.

Get away from it. I've played at least 5 sngs with both you and stockmaster, and you are a better player. Hold on to your chips until you have a better edge.

ps. i think you raised to much pf.

[censored] happens, you can't always have the best of both worlds. Fold the flop.
