Is the shove correct?

Ploppy33

This was in the last 20 or so of a £2.20 deepie

Really toyed with the idea of folding pre (thoughts please?) as table was fairly tight but once decided to call should I shove to stop the draws or not?

Do I want a caller? - Check raising didnt seem to be option as no guarantee of c-bet as generally not seen it before.

If not shove how much bet?

bad beat yawn, call fine pre with stacks. good move on flop you were miles ahead got unlucky

Yes eveytime. The caller knew he was behind but wanted to get it in as an 60-40 dog. Not a bad beat tho.

Didnt consider this a bad beat at all as probably would of called myself - but was wondering if the shove is right against 2 opponents 1st to act - obviously could be walking into made flush already.

Also do I want to encourage a call for say 15k on a draw to extract value? or too risky?

Check call a possibility? (again to extract value)

In my books shove is fine, even if they had got lucky with a made flush u had a few outs with a FH unlucky as u was ahead.
