I shove this pretty happily with the K high flush draw and two overs. The dreaded check/minraise is not even nearly always the nuts, sometimes they do this as a cheap attempt to pick off your supposed c-bet.

raise more preflop. like 140 or 150. and i definitely fold the flop. there's a big, big chance that someone has a set, an overpair or the A high flush draw. that min-raise is really scary. i could see overpushing against one better.

Without a read on opponent I think it is too early to be jeopardizing your entire stack...all you are doing is increaing the equity for ALL of the other players at this time by pushing. I go with the pot / implied odds and see what the Turn brings for an additional t180, with a c/c or c/f depending on the bet of your opponent on the turn. Might seem a bit passive, but I think you have too good of a hand for a fold at this time. Process of elimination...I don't like the big raise or the fold, so call is left. Also, if you hit your flush, unless he is sitting on the Ad there is a decent chance you may stack him, as he was the aggressor, with a c/r on the Turn or River (though I personally would bet the Turn if you hit as he seems willing to put in chips).

I push all in with your flush draw and two overs. If he happens to have the Ace high flush draw then you're probably ahead or tied with another AK. I don't see you in too bad of shape very often, if he has QQ or something then you're getting good enough odds on the hand. This looks a lot like an overpair with a flush draw, maybe 99-QQ. It could also just be a strange bluff. The times that you are ahead here added with the probability you suck out far out ways the chances that he has a big big hand, like a set or a flush.

shove, not close really.
