I fold this PF. It's early and you'll be OOP post flop.

If you push the turn, which hands will pay you off and which hands that'll beat you fold?
I'd fold preflop, check-raise the flop to 400-450, check/fold the turn and make a blocking bet on the river to get a showdown for sure.

i guess at this level, there are plenty of flushdraws that will call your shove without hesitating. if that's a good thing, i dunno.. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

as played pf, i raise the flop, too and shove turn. as played to the river, i may check the river and even lay it down against a big bet. i know, very weak.. i like the blocking bet approach, though.
