    Default End of tourney...flush push?

    Villian has been only semi-loose, but has made a few donkish plays in the tourney, but overall not too bad. Most notable, when I check-raised him on a straight draw board (7,9,10,J) he pushed me all in losing to my straight with his pair of nines.

    Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (3 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

    SB (t3860)
    Hero (t5330)
    Button (t5810)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 4, A.
    Button raises to t800, 1 fold, Hero calls t400.

    Flop: (t1800) 6, J, 5 (2 players)
    Hero bets t600, Button raises to t3600


    What's my move here? Should I have pushed the flop? Any comments on any step of the way welcome.

    Push. You're getting 2-1 and you get to see the turn and river. That's good enough to draw to the nut flush, plus your over gives you extra equity. Also, there is a slim chance your A high is good right now.
    There's three types of people in the world...those who can count, and those who can't.

    Don't fold. Otherwise, it doesn't really matter.

    Meaning from the point I made the flop blunder? Or it doesn't matter where I get all the chips in from preflop to this point as long as I was planning to do it.

    Exactly why I'm posting. I realized after his bet I should have just got it all in there. I'm relatively new to all this. I figured I'd lead out with bigger than min bet, but now I realize way too small to scare him off considering he raised me in the first place, duh.

    All-in or just a hefty raise and how much? A4o good enough for PF push considering I'm in currently second and we have equal stack sizes?
