Push. There is appox. 430 in the pot and you have 610 left. Even if you are called you are likely getting a great price on your draw.

You are almost even money if villian has A,K or K,10
You are only 2/1 against a set

Flat call the 210, one of them has a set and I don't think they are both going to call. Auto push the turn no matter what comes off.

"Auto push the turn no matter what comes off."

Awful advice. Push the flop instead.

if you think one has a set, why would you push on the turn?

that means you may kill you action if your outs hit, or that you are pushing on a blank which makes you a big dog.

push the flop hero, you dont have enough to worry about anything here.

hope it worked out.

I use to make this mistake quite a bit as well. Hero has to push pre-flop while getting correct odds to do so and perhaps some folding equity along with it.

IMO they are not both going to fold to a flop push, but if another broadway card comes 77 might fold if he isn't too smart. In retrospect autopushing the turn isn't my brightest idea ever but I think a flop push is pointless, I will push with draws like this but not if I am sure I will get called.

Worse than folding.
