Re: Not as \"standard\" a hand as it might seem at first blush....
If you call, he knows you have at the very least an ace with a good kicker. With him knowing this, it likely that he is going to just check/fold the rest of the hand. You will get no more money out of him.
If you push, the only hands you really have to worry about are AA, 66, 99 and combo draws. But, I think by pushing you can probably get him to call with a alot of worse hands than those four, so pushing is probably the best value.
By flat calling, you are less likely to have him get stupid with hands at a disadvantage to yours.
