Re: $4/180 decisions
In regards to raising the flop, as many people are suggesting:
I don't like pushing the flop here because the preflop raiser is still to act immediately behind hero. I prefer keeping everyone in the pot and allowing the PFR to pop it up which makes it easier for the early position player to come along as well. It's all too likely that if hero pushes, the PFR behind us will call and the EP player may be driven out of the pot. I'm fairly certain with heros draw that it's much more profitable to get 2 other players all-in as opposed to just one. If the PFR fails to raise the rest of the money is still going in on the turn for sure and hero would still be correct as per FTOP to put his chips in because he's being offered the correct odds by having 2 opponents still active in the pot.
I think this line gives our opponents more of an opportunity to make a mistake and also increases our expectation in the hand.
