($33): Push this draw? <10xBBs
Limps from EP from both of these players doesn’t not scare me that much, they have not been overly tight.
Given this read, how’s this play?

Re: ($33): Push this draw? <10xBBs
I can understand that play and may have made it myself in the past. However, in this situation with the early position I would have probably just checked to see if one of them is going to make a play at the hand.
If they do than I will decide if I want to push or fold (most likely I will push). If they don't I get a free chance to make the flush. However, you had the better read on the other players and may have seen how they reacted in similar situations in previous hands. GL

Re: ($33): Push this draw? <10xBBs
I don't know, to me it's just too likely that one of the two either hit that flop hard, or hit it well enough to come along.
I don't think a push is awful or anything, I'd just chill and await developments, especially since I'm not drawing to the nuts here.

What hands do you think they are limping that hit this flop hard? 99, A8/A9s? I was worried that a mid pocket pair would call me most times here if that is what I was up against. But people limp lots of hands other than mid pair here.

Re: ($33): Push this draw? <10xBBs
I like this play a lot. It's a simple semi-bluff. Occasionally you'll get called by a JT and your K hi will hold. Most all of the time if you are called though you will have to catch your flush to win. Sometimes a K will win it for you.
But most of the time you're not going to worry as you'll be 350 in chips richer uncontested. It is always hairy bluffing out multipul opponents though. Your chances of being called are unclear.

Thanks for the comments guys. I guess next time I'll be a little more patient and see what the other two players do before making a semi-bluff here or folding. Here's what happened (Pineapple, ur were dead on!).

Any 8, any 9, any two hearts to start with. 76, JT, pairs. One opponent, I lean towards pushing, but with two others I don't like it nearly as much.
