MP: $25
CO: $12.55
BTN: $25

Pre-Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (UTG)
<font color="red">Hero raises to $0.85</font>, 3 folds, SB calls $0.75, BB folds

Flop: ($1.95) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)

Turn: ($4.95) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $3</font>, <font color="red">Hero ???

<font color="blue">
Villain is 41/26 and doesn't seem too good.
He flat calls my flop bet, then donks into me on the turn when th flush completes.

Questions:
1. Do you raise here?
2. (more importantly) if he shoves on top, do you call?

First, I think you need to bet more on the flop, as lots of draws ( OESD, NFD, med strength combo etc.) will be willing to call a PSB to see the turn, while some others (OESFD blah blah) will often raise, allowing you to shove profitably.

As played, I would raise to about $14 and call a shove. If villain just calls then I shove any river.

note: this line is specific to the read you gave. I dont like it against any kind of decent non-nit.

I can not fold a set against a 41/26. You crush his range and I think that your equity is such that a pot sized raise is best here, calling a shove.

If he's still drawing a check let's him get there cheap.
