    wiwwe called - $8.50 <--- Kinda big raise since there's no flush draws, and not many ppl understand to kill str8 draw odds, putting him on middle pair here. with better cards he wouldn't be raising this much, right? he wants callers with g00t cards. Also he didn't raise preflop -> no big pairs.

    JuuLes87 folded
    as_gaeilge went all-in - $27.92 <--- There's $79.17 in the pot and it costs me about $13 to call this. Can't fold now, right? So I made a crying call and ended up winning the hand. after his push i thought maybe he made his fuckface str8.
    wiwwe called - $12.92

    My aggressive style says get it all in on the flop. If someone limped a bigger pp, and i can only see that being JJ pay it. To many will call u here with top pair or 88/99 putting you on overs. So, i insta-push that flop

    The pre-flop raise sets this hand up. I like raising and folding on the flop, but hate calling. Too many cards will spook you or your opponent when you're ahead.

    Actually, I'll go so far as to suggest a push or fold on this flop...

    ^^What Fnord said. Calling is by far the worst play on this flop. Against one player it might be okay, but against two opponents, you need to make a choice right now of how you want to continue, and by continuing I mean moving in, or putting in a large reraise. If you sense that your're beat, then fold. There are too many scare cards that can hit that put you in an ugly spot. However, given you flop play, turn play is standard.
