raise the flop, its draw heavy and your ahead of the shortstacks range IMO by a longshot.

Yeah you gotta raise that flop.

Raise the flop and bet the turn.

Definately raise flop. You are ahead of the short stacks all in range. Raise also makes it two bets cold to the original checkers and will definately give you info on their hand.

Does a flop raise to $40 commit you to the hand?

What do you do if you get pushed on?

A raise to about $30 would commit you to the hand against the player with $60 left but if the player with $100 left pushed after an all in and a reraise you could still get away from it even though you are getting 2/1 but it would depend on your read on the player.

i think you can fold pretty confidently to a sane MP1 if he limp/calls preflop and check/shoves over a bet and raise because overs+FD arent really in his range so even his combo draws are ahead of you
