I mean there's probably no way you're not bustin on that flop if you're behind, but open pushing seems kind of ridiculous. Why not just make a normal value bet?

uh, yeah i wouldnt open shove, but im pretty much never folding this board when raised. curse him for hitting his set/KT or w/e and open more sngs.

What about this flop is scary to you? This flop is actually really good for our hand because there is a decent chance one of our villains hit a pair.

Bet out 2/3 pot, ~T180ish. I have no problem getting it all in here, but try to get some value out of your hand, and get it in on one of the later streets if possible. Its ok to play post-flop in SNGs.
