Shoved too soon?

-You can't post converted hands until 10 posts.
-Don't post results, skews our thinking and takes the fun out of it.

I bet flop, let's start building that pot! You're going to get value from Kx and straight draws for sure, and plenty of other junk at 2nl.

I raise the turn to ~$1.25, shoving seems a little overboard.

Doesn't raising 1/3 of our stack on the turn seem a little desperate?

I like this here, it's about the minimum you can make a respectable raise, I don't like flatting, or min-raising, this is ~3 times his bet, without being unreasonable. Though this could maybe be avoided by flop action.

It's a good bet, I just skimmed it and saw that it would be awkward.

Would awkward tend to appear strong or weak to our opponents here?

I think it would appear pretty strong as a raise when we checked the BTN on that flop
