lol. calling and raising turn is ok too imo, but in these spots you basically have the nuts and are getting action, it's just a matter of how best to get all of it in.

calling flop is bad, villain looks like he wants to get it in so why not? If you call not only can you let the villain catch up but a scare card might come that will kill your action.

I gave villain the following range:
1) sets
2) two pair
3) top pair
4) flush draws

If I push against his top pair he likely has the good sense to fold his hand. If he has a flush draw he gets the odds to call. Against two pair and sets it doesnt really matter.
That's why I opted to call the flop and get it in on the turn.

Shove...pray to g-d he thinks you think he is on a draw and trying to get a free turn OR he has A4 of a combodraw where you are aSTILL FAVORED which isnt such a bad gamble especially bc you kill a few outs of his.

There are too many scare cards on the turn for me to want to call plus...it just looks fishy to me to call...im not calling here.

Shove. In this spot you happened to get a beautiful turn card - but any K, Q, T, or club could conceivably kill your action. Just get it in - there is plenty of money already in the pot, no time to get cute.
