MadMal14 seemed aggressive when he had something. Here, I've put him on two overcards or a top pair, anyway it's not much of a difference since I flopped the straight
The only question here is:
a) would you flat call (in fear of the flush)?
b) raise to make sure he will not have odds to call if his drawing for the flush?
c) shove it all-in?

I don't like a) due to the flush possibility, however, being in the bubble it could be an option to keep the pot small in case a third club comes on the board.
b) would be my prefered option if it was not the bubble.
c) being the bubble I'll be happy to take the pot as it is, but maybe this is too weak/tight?

Thanks!

shove it, opp is aggressive plus you dont have a strong enough hand to slowplay. slowplaying gets new players in just as much trouble as AQ.

I personally prefer getting it all in on the flop. if the third of the suit pops up on the turn, you're not going to like your hand if you get called, and if it doesn't come in, and he's chasing, you'll scare him out on the turn. two pair or a set is calling you here or the turn, so there's very little advantage to waiting until the turn I think.

it looks to me like you're up against Ax with the X pairing the board, but I'm speculating. There are several hands he could have.

consider that you're putting 400 in to call, with 1600 roughly behind. that means you're staring at an 1100 chip pot by simply calling.

That's fine to win right now, or get all your money in with.

definitely drop the hammer on the flop.
