Default Live tour. Push or call turn with monster draw?

Live tour. Full of donks (low buyin).

9-handed, 2nd level blinds t200/t400, Hero has t12,5k which villian has covered.

Hero is MP with 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

UTG donk raises to t1000, sane villian calls, 1 folds, Hero feels laggy today and calls, everyone else folds.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Donk checks, Villian bets t1200, hero calls, donk folds.

Turn: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Villian bets t2000, Hero?

sane villian?! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

His flop bet looks like a feeler bet so I would raise expecting him to fold, if he is sane.

As played you have some trubble reping a hand on the turn so call again, and hope to get lucky. As a sane man he probably wont pay you though.

You have to make a large raise on the flop with the strong draw, pair plus flush draw.

As played, push the turn with flush draw, open ended, and pair.

How much does villain have? The smaller stack size is the significant one.

Turn is a very basic shove.

Flop is probably a raise but the stack of the 3rd villain is relevant. Also, if you raise you obviously have to call a 3-bet all in.

I dont like preflop since you are not aggro enough to be instapushing this perfect board for your hand. If you are not capable of semibluffing suited connectors on boards that you connect with then you can not play them profitably

Villian's small bet on the flop made me somewhat suspicous at the time, that's why I just called.

On the turn I couldn't help myself and insta-shoved. Villian insta-called with TT. The 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] fell on the river and I was out. It would've been so good to shoot that set down on the river, but it wasn't meant to be this time.

I later made a 3-way split in a crazy rebuy (Party style) tourney to make a decent payday.

LOL + [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] @ needing to feel "laggy" to call here?! More like "Hero knows how to read his hand and therefore is obligated to AT LEAST call, regardless if he's feeling LAGgy, TAGgy, NITty or any other ty".
