Default Re: 100 NL: Rivered Straight, Raise?

could you elaborate orange? I am very curious in hearing this:

My thinking: What flush draws does he possibly have? a4d, 46d, 45d I think are all the logical ones, so its a pretty small part of his range. If you min-re raise the river, do you plan on folding to a shove? If so, is it not a better choice to flat call? Why risk being bluffed off the whole pot for $7 more?

Doesn't he only need to bluff shove air, or even value shove his 4 a very small percentage of the time to make min re raising / folding a -EV play, compared to flat calling even?

I believe he would call the shove with any 4, possibly a set. Why re-open the betting to him if we are folding to a shove?

If we are min re raising to induce a bluff, or to call a shove, I like it a lot. But that can't really be said without reads, imo.

I really would like to hear more opinions on this
