Default 200 NL, flop set, get raised..

Absolute Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players
Converter
Stack Size:

Hero $231.03
Button $58.79

I am relatively new to NL. I have no real read on button
other than he is playing 3 tables.

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
2 folds, Button calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $5</font>, BB folds, Button calls.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($11, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $4</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises to $14</font>, Hero?

Question is do you punish his draw or what ever hand he likes here on the flop. Or do we take our chance on the turn and get our money in there regardless because of his stack size?

Thanks, Dave

Why "take our chances" on the turn? Do you not think Villain will put all of his money in on this flop? If so, why give him any opportunity to fold on the turn? If he is at all capable of folding whatever he has, he's more likely to do so when a spade or an ace falls on the turn. You're also slightly less likely to be ahead on the turn when he goes all in. Don't get me wrong: Villain is almost never folding this, and you are very rarely losing the hand. The flop is simply the better and surest street to get the money in.
