    Default How are we playing this hand?

    What's the best play here? Shoving? or just regular c-betting? are we getting away from the hand if we get check raised? Help!!! I recently realized that I suck at poker and I need help on what to do in spots like these...

    No structure
    Pot odds and pot equity would be some good topics to study.

    With nut flush draw and not straight draw, and one overcard there is no way you are folding this hand.
    I would bet 2/3 pot and call any reraise

    I agree, I would bet 800 and call a shove, we have a huge amount of equity here.

    agree....2/3 pot bet & NOT folding to a shove, you'll still have almost 1200 IF u lose...enough to fight another battle...
