I was somewhat unsure of what to do here. I have no history on the villan as they've just sat down on the table. I see my options as either folding or pushing......a call puts almost half my stack in.

Your thoughts...........

I'm just getting started playing NL Cash but this looks very similar to a line I've seen Villains take Limit HE. I wouldn't be surprised if he has A/K, A/Q or 9/9 here. His flop check-raise was to ensure some value and his only line on the turn is to bet and hope you feel attached enough to your hand to have you call/raise. Fold.

pf is pointless villian isnt goin to fold to a minraise make a standard raise to like 2.5. Id 3bet flop look to get AI. I think you see Ax here (which villian probably will felt or call your 3bet) and flush draws probably make up a big portion of villians range as well so im also 3betin for protection. If villian has 33 or 99 oh well its a cooler. As played id probably push turn.

Seems like a simple push to me, don't know what all the confusion is about.

Th only hand you can be worried about is trip 3s if he has hit them you have to pay it off. He most likely has an ace, a worse two pair or a pair and a flush draw.

You have to push here.

Buy in full. Raise it up to $2 if you are going to raise. With your stack size I'm just shoving the flop here, your most likely ahead.

3 bet the flop probably all in, and as you played it, I may assume you were hoping not to see a diamond. Well you didnt, so shove the turn also.

Thanks for the repsonse........by the looks of things I made the wrong call (I folded).

I ran this through poker stove, the results show that I should have pushed.
