Default Re: $50nl all-in nut flush draw

You've already been told not to limp UTG.

On the flop you make a donk-bet into the preflop raiser which I'm not crazy about. You've made a great draw on this flop but you don't have a hand yet. If you bet here and are called, you might be in a good position to get paid if a heart comes. If you bet here and are raised big, like you were, the odds to call are now not very good. If you do call, you might not get paid on a heart. And if the heart doesn't come, you've committed a lot of money to a hand where you are out of position and you don't even know if your ace outs are good. So you're out of position with a lot of money in the pot and only 9 outs.

Re-raising here I don't like at all, because you can be pretty sure he is calling you after he raised you on the flop. Shoving over the top of him is a sure way to get all your money in drawing to 9 outs. I would check this flop because you get to see what the button does, and you might get some better odds if the blinds call a small bet from the button.
