knowing the amount of the pre-flop raise would be helpful, I might push this flop because of your somewhat smallish stack.

Raise flop to pot, check the turn if you don't hit. River plays itself. You are probably trailing right now and getting a better flush draw to fold would be a good thing here. You want it heads up with Mr. AQ.

Potting the flop and playing further is not an option. Pot is $80 by the time it gets to hero and he has only has $85 left. This is all in or fold. I'd need a good read that my flush draw is good to move in b/c I think you've got little or no fold equity against either opponent.

hmmm, with $70 in the pot on the flop, UTG bet's $25? I can't put UTG on top pair with a bet like that unless he has top pair no kicker.

he might be drawing to a higher flush here.

I'm all in.
This is what you're hoping for calling raises with SC's isn't it? Pair+flushdraw or straightdraw+flushdraw puts you ahead of alot of hands
