Well, you beat all 1 pairs hands, which are probably 90 of his range.

nit alert : I bet only 200 on the flop.

rex,
yeah agree with the 200 bet, does exactly the same job as 250.

so, you'd push or fold??? i think calling here is terrible.

Afgan,
I like 200 on the flop. I can't hit the "all in" button fast enough once he raises the turn. Remember, this is a losing player in a BvB battle. Top/bottom is the nuts plus there is a huge overlay. Assuming you go allin you only need to win 30% of the time.

thanks for the advice,
i went all in and he had 67 for the flopped straight.
i just found it annoying that out of all the ways he could have played the hand (if he'd checkraised all in the turn instacall, if he'd bet the turn i'd have pushed all in) he played it the only way that gave me an escape route.

saying that though, i think pushing and going broke was the right decision.
