Presto Push?

I'd push, but he will have you beat some.

i shove

[nuggetz87]

pretty sick...anyone else fold? honestly what do you expect him to turn up that you're ahead of ever that he's raising the flop 4 ways?

i'd still bet the flop like you did though...raise has to come from a solid opponent for me to fold.

i think at best here you're up against a flush or open ended str draw, and more often than not you're facing either a set or a made low'ish flush. i fold here and wait for a better spot.

that said, i'm a wuss :-)

i actually think this is a fairly easy fold.

follow up question:

If you were in villain's shoes, what would you do with TT no spade here? what would you do with TTs?

[immesan]

hello 22...sometime he´ll show up with As9x but not often enough

[Ranma4703]

He has aggression factor of 6, he knows you probably have an overpair or the A high flush draw, and you don't want to be raised. I like a push.

what about calling here, and getting it in on brick turn? I dont think were very much ahead here often.. We have way better equity on the turn. Normally i dont really like playing like that (calling to get it in on turn with so many scare cards in the deck), but here i might just like it.

[nuggetz87]

people don't just flat in the CO here with any offsuit cards besides pairs usually...
