    Yeah, if you play here you've got to push it. I don't mind a fold though, b/c his overbet says to me that he's willing to felt it. And pushing draws depends on fold equity to be profitable.

    I think a flop raise is in order there. Probably ship it now.

    Interesting hand. I wonder what he has on the turn? Maybe some two pair type hand, maybe a straight? He obviously puts you on a draw, and correctly so. I doubt he will put in a lot of money on the river if you make your hand there, so a turn push would be the only way to get your draw paid off IMO.

    However, zook makes a valid point that profitably pushing with draws requires some FE, which you don't likely have much of. I am fine with folding the turn since you are probably behind his most likely range, and it doesn't look like he is willing to fold.

    You aren't getting pot odds to call either, though it is close and if you think you could get $15 off of Villan on the river if you make your hand a call on the turn might actually be profitable.

    ($10 to win $16 ; you would need to be at least a 38% favorite to win the hand at showdown to be getting correct pot odds).

    So, my answer to your question is; fold or call, but going AI on the turn is not +EV. Folding would be best unless you believe villan will pay off a value bet on the river if you make your hand.
