    Default NL100 Top pair + flush draw

    Villain is 32.5/2.5/11 over 40 hands. I had a feeling he was a fish.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button ($97)
    SB ($108.45)
    BB ($165.25)
    UTG ($101)
    UTG+1 ($265.25)
    Hero ($100)
    MP2 ($248.75)
    CO ($116.30)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 9, T.
    2 folds, Hero calls $1, MP2 raises to $4, 2 folds, SB calls $3.50, 1 fold, Hero calls $3.

    Flop: ($13) T, 4, 7 (3 players)
    SB bets $5, Hero raises to $15, MP2 folds, SB raises to $25, Hero calls $10.

    Turn: ($63) 3 (2 players)
    SB bets $10, Hero calls $10.

    River: ($83) J (2 players)
    SB bets $20, Hero raises to $61

    Standard, or should I just push the flop? I was a bit afraid of a set and thus this line, but given the fact that he probably was a fish he could easily have Tx here. Anyone play this differently?

    Ni Han. Only debatable street is the flop.

    I would play it the same. I think flop push is if you do this also with more hands like flopped 2p+

    So you think raising the flop is bad? I figured it would get me a free card and disguise my draw. And of course it's always possible I will win the pot right there.

    Anyway villain folded to my push, I suppose he had Tx.

    Am I underestimating the skill level of a typical fish or what's so funny? And yeah, disguising my hand isn't the most important thing I'm trying to achieve by raising the flop.
