PULL THE TRIGGER!!!!!

There is enough in the pot and your hand is such that you should get all your money in now. You have FE and you have a hand that doesn't mind calls. But missing the turn is very very bad.

I'm reraising...but not so much that it screams out draw. Probably reraising to 650ish, and of course calling any sort of all-in.

Your hand is simply too strong to fold here. The only event where you aren't 50/50 is against a made straight - everything else you have 15 outs, and sometimes you'll have the K outs as well.

I moved all in and everyone folded. Had I not read some posts here yesterday, I likely would have made a lesser bet and had callers, although that might not have been a bad thing - but I can live with taking down the pot on the spot like that.

Thanks again folks!
