who likes this play? too soon for a make on the opponent because of multitabling and concentration in a HU dual for win.

You are only badly losing to a bigger flush draw. Will he call you with a bigger flush draw?

I think I make this play too often; I would say that I like it but it's been screwing me in the past, so I don't know anymore.

It's "duel"

you gotta play that. that i know you know. someone tell me pushing with this hand is'nt good. (9) spades and (3) sixs, i think you're in pretty good shape the majority of the time.

no my straight draw is dead before it started but, "is there a diamond in the rough?"

I'd make this play with 8x of diamonds, but not 4x of diamonds, too many redraws for my taste.

That being said I don't think it's hideous play if you're after hourly rate, but I don't think it's a good ROI play.
