    calling is fine here, as is shoving.

    I like a call, as you have probably the best hand AND the best draw, so you dont need to protect your hand so much, as the draws favour you.

    We want the rest of his stack.

    Of course, if you think he will call a shove with his entire betting range, then by all means stick your chips over the line.

    Edit: The stacks are now so shallow Vs the pot that I prolly just stick the chips over the line.

    Valor would you not be more scared on this board if you just called preflop? I felt that he could only have KK (possibly QQ) calling 36BBs pre flop. If I just called then you are opening the door for JJ and maybe 99 on that flop.

    Anyway I pushed and he could not call quick enough.. BB sticky I know but just wanted to see what people though of pre and post flop in this situation. Are we always happy to ship it on that flop know that if he has flop a set or a flush (anyone play KQ sooted like that) that we have at least go outs.

    By the by he had lucky 77 bah.


    See Fuzz I'm just easy money..;)
