One or more has top pair. Push this. One or more will probably call, putting you on the diamond draw.

Interesting, and if you weren't doing the Gobbodance I'd dismiss it out of hand. (By the way, my son loves your avatar. "What's that man doing?")

Of course you're giving all kinds of odds to diamond draws, which multi-handed is something of a gambooool. Are you doing this because you need a huge stack if you're going to win the seat?

You got some 'splaining to do Lucy!

Well, I chickened out on the slow play and just pushed. The flush draw scared me and I figured calling or raising and then pushing to a non-diamond board would given me very little FE on the turn. I really struggle with hands like this. Meaning, sets on scarey boards. I am always scared to give cards, but at the same token, I feel like by playing them so fast, I push out all action. I am sure there is a happy medium. Just gotta find it.

Results - I pushed, they fold.

Even if it is a big chunk of money, don't you want to get as much as possible on hands like that? You don't get to flop a set so often...

I don't feel I found the way to extract the most of it...
