I would just like to say that I am a complete n00b to cash games as I have been playing tournaments for the better part of two years. Since the legislation change I decided to work on cash games and start fresh at the bottom.
Here I wonder whether a raise pf is correct. I did it because I wanted to eliminate players due to my poor position, and I also had a good hand. However this hand also works well multi-way so I wondered which option is preferable ?
UTG is a donk and is looking to push his chips in as soon as he has a little something. The Button is TAG and seems to be a regular. I make a slightly larger cbet on the flop due to the draws and happy to call an all-in by the shortie.
However did I correctly push vs. the buttons raise. He could well have a straight already, but could also be on two pair and multiple draws ?
