1: Just sat down no reads. I really don't know how to proceed after he raises me. Should I be 3 betting and then pushing the turn?

Don't bet the flop. As played I fold to the reraise.

Toss it.

It's a decent draw, but not a monster one.

this isn't what I consider a big draw. If you have J9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]'s, or a FD + 2 overs, or a pair + FD, don't hate getting it all in. In this spot I just fold.

WTF people?

I think a fold is fine. Given the size of Villain's raise, Hero probably has little-to-no fold equity even if he pushes. It's also possible that Villain has a better flush draw.

Why call preflop when you are thinking about folding with a such big draw? As played i go all in.

Yeah I missed the fact that we had a gutshot to go along with our FD in my first post. 13 outs = get it all in on the flop.

I missed it too. WTF me?
