fold the flop or raise the flop.

you want to drive out flush draw and fold out missed overs.

Your calling a UTG 4*bb raise in MP with 54s, this is -EV. Aside from the pre-flop play, flop is questionable. The turn card is perfect and your push is fine, the river is just plain unlucky unless someone flopped a set.

Fair enough... but I had EP on a big pair (AA, KK, QQ) and was a little worried that if I raised, then he might push. (I didn't really put the button on anything at that point... although I knew a flush draw was a possibility.)

I know the call was a little loose, but I figured if I called, then the button would also probably call and I'd have the odds. Also, if I hit my straight and EP did have AA or KK, I'd probably get a lot more out of him.

I'm looking to bust the guy if I can... I can't do that in limit, but I can in NL... especially if he's got KK or AA and I hit on the flop.
