25nl how do you play this big draw?

[burns-1986]

I'll start this by saying im new to nl cash so i wasnt really sure how to play this. The original raiser is a donk so ive been trying to take flops against him with playable hands, the bb is a solid tag who I havent gotten involved with in any big pots, thoughts on all streets

Thanks Hanover, that was nice of you.

Preflop is fine, take a cheap flop with a drawing hand. On the flop you've got 12 outs with your flush and gutshot draws, so calling a pot-size bet is fine imo. Calling the BB's raise is fine, anyone condone a possible shove here? We're 45% to hit the hand anyway, is there any FE at these levels? I like the shove fwiw. Then on the turn bets $15 at $20, so giving you 2.3:1 and the actual odds of catching are 2.8:1. If you call here and hit, you're left with $22 which he may call a shove with he may not, and you're oop. Folding's not terrible here, it's marginal either way.

If MP is the kind of donk that's going to bet out if checked to, I'd prefer a large c/r rather than a c/c.

As played ... calling the BB's c/r is great here. You're getting great odds to hit your flush or gutshot. Pushing is ng here .. 0 FE and you're a significant dog to 2pr or a set.

Once you miss on the turn, c/f is good.

interesting hand.

i shove these hands on the flop a lot. cold calling the re-raise on the flop essentially telegraphs that you are on a draw, as a set or 2 pair would be shoving all day. youre a coinflip with basically every hand on the flop and it's so sick for table image (ZOMG I SAW THAT GUY GO ALL IN WITH A FLUSH DRAW HES A MANIAC) that when you shove made hands you'll get paid off.
