Well, yeah, if you are going to play it this way then of course shove the turn.

i think u shoulda raised pf to define other ppl ranges better but w/e. on flop villain 2 has a draw a lot of the time here but obviously utg is a bit risky, conservative play is to cold call and hope no draws complete on the turn and then re-evaluate utg's hand, the raise pretty much commits u to the hand, when utg doesnt shove over the top of u, i think u can usually eliminate aces but sets might play tricky, i think ur running into the same hand or kq a lot of the time though with how he played it. overall i like calling flop and re-evaluating turn as a raise commits too much of ur chips without much info

i like just calling the flop bet here despite the presence of the fish.

is raising the flop to protect against draws (esp the MP) just stupid? because thats my first thought, to raise the draws

The problem is, you can't really be confident you have the best hand, and it will generally cost you your stack to find out.

Plus you may make money later when they put you on a draw and value bet a worse hand and/or bluff if they whiff.

Somtimes you just gotta let people draw, if that's what they are doing. These sorts of spots are tough.

MP folded the turn pretty fast
