<font color="red">UTG+1 bets $10</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $69 and is All-In</font>

I have a question about the flop. Personally I'm not too happy with my flop play. I think my flop raise is too weak and gives him tremendous odds if he's on a draw. On the other side I don't like to raise a big amount, and have to fold if he shoves. Calling for me was not an option either, because there are too many hands that are dangerous on the turn. So what is your plan here on the flop?

I raise to at least $30 on the flop, maybe 35-40 depending on history with villain. As played I would probably raise the turn to $45, but a shove is fine.

I agree that flop raise needs to be bigger, and I think shoving turn is fine as played. I would be calling a shove here on the flop.

Yeah, you need to raise more on the flop and you have to get it all-in on that turn card.
