it definitely crossed my mind to push on the flop, but i thought i could call the raise safely enough and possibly maneuver my wy into doubling through him on the turn/river if i hit or perhaps steal the pot if an interesting card fell. i felt like if i pushed the flop i made it too easy for a T to call and even though i have a lot of outs twice i didnt love that spot given stack sizes.

feeling pretty good about this hand although it was close between continuing, pushing, or folding on the flop. check-call small bet on the flop has merit too.
