Default Re: Not sure when to get the money in

I would consider this a missed hand (especially with UTG+1 still in) and fold. I've been playing pretty conservatively, lately, though. I could see an argument for pushing, though.

You aren't far behind a pair+straight draw, so a push could force out UTG+1 unless he's really strong, and it could also force the button off of the pair+straight draw if he doesn't feel like gambling and sees you as nitty. And if you are behind, you have 2 and maybe .5 outs. So, you could embrace variance and push. I don't know how often Button has two pair+ here, though, which he probably won't fold.
