Default Re: 25NL: Flop Straight, turn pairs board.

This is an interseting spot, but i think there's a good chance we're still ahead.

Do people here like a call or a push? I don't think folding is an option here.

Villain 1 and 2's range are both quite wide, IMO. Both can have a boat. JT, QJ, and KQ are within both of their ranges, as are diamond draws.

There's a reasonable chance hero is beaten, but IMO a fairly good chacne he's ahead. So what to do? I'm not sure. I think it's got to be fairly close between a shove and a call, right? A shove is goign to get called by a non-boat T and maybe even by a diamond draw, since we only have like 10 more on top, and even QJ might make a stupid call, so I think I like a shove.

A call and then passive play, planning to call any bet on a non-diamond river, and releasing to action on a diamond river doesn't seem bad, but I dont think i liek it as much. thoughts?
