Do you go broke here or do you save it for another day?$10 Heads-up NL at Pacific.Blinds are 10/20. Chip stacks are even I get dealt K :club: J :D on the button.I raise to 80. Call.Flop: 2 :D J :) 9 :D He bets 20. I call. (I probably should have raised?)Turn: K :) He bets $20. I raise to $100. He goes all-in.Now what?

At the flop, there's about 160 in the pot and this guy bets 20. Then he min bets on the turn again, and goes allin when you raise him. This looks like a nut flush who wants to get paid and is trying to suck you in.When this flop comes down, my goal is to reach showdown as cheaply as possible. I would reluctantly call on the flop like you did, but I would not raise the turn as I could still be drawing to only 4 outs. I say reluctantly call the flop bet because while we are getting great odds, you practically have to fold to any significant raise.

By raising the flop; you might be able to get away from this hand, more cheaply... but just guessing

Thanks for the replies. I guess I just wanted to be sure I made the right choice. Seems like the general consensus is to raise the flop (I know that was a mistake).I called.He flipped over K :club: J :D River: 6 :D Given this specific case, I think I'm going broke no matter what.Assuming we dont know what he has, and I raise to 150 on the flop and he pushes. Would you call then with TP good kicker?

Oooh it would take me balls to call, my first reasoning would be to put him on a small flush and he was a poo poo mcmuffin to call 4BB with 78spades, then you think about the possibility of two pair. Doesn't Pacific only give you 800 chips to start with though, or is it different for HU ?
