An interesting little altercation

totally disagree that shoving turn is ever going to be good. and that is definitely not the way to try and salvage this hand. it just happens to be marginally better than what he did. but still very -EV.

Against stronger players who spend hours thinking critically about the game, probably not.

Weaker players will peel the flop raise with a whole lot of hands they're dumping on the turn. Heck, they might even talk themselves into a laydown when confronted with the final big bet.

I've certainly pulled the trigger in worse spots...
