$10 NL HE 6-max: TP with straight draw against two opponents

This table has been very loose and aggressive. The texture of the flop seems very beneficial to my hand, so I make the pot bet, and then I seem pot committed to push. Should I push with two opponents likely to call?

Tough spot.

What's btn's (pls use a hand converter in the future) range to raise pf and raise a psb that was flat called on that flop, and what's bb's range to flat a psb? If we're ahead, which seems unlikely, we're ahead of better draws.

On the other hand, by betting pot on the flop, we've already got 25% of our stack in - if we're not getting it in here, we shouldn't have lead the flop, probably the key point to make here.

Meh, given stack size and the money already in the pot, I probably shove alot of the time but don't dislike folding, w a full stack I definitely fold.

I see this type of play from half stack villains very frequently (i.e., shoving TPMK w a weak draw) - imo, alot of it is caused by the stack size and not planning play of the hand effectively (leading this flop oop is a mistake imo that creates the problem here) - while I dislike playing on tables w players w 20bb's, I love playing on tables w players w 40-50bb's.

With 48 blinds this is such an easy comittment flop.

There's $3 in the pot, you might have FE still, you could have the best hand now, and you still have a solid draw.

Just jam it in

Oh, we led for pot. Well then we're even more in. I didn't look at the hand that closely yet, so I didn't realize you meant a gutterball. Just assumed open-ended.

Still, started the hand with 48 blinds, hit top pair, have the gutter, so we have 3 jacks, 4 8's, and prolly 1 T (T good 1/2 the time). So we have about 33% equity here when we need to suck out.

We only need 2:1 to call off profitably even if we're always behind. Pot is $6.20 and we have to call $3.58, lol about dead even. However, once we throw in some % of bluffs/hands we're ahead of, it swings the decision to a clear call.

Here are the results. I did wind up pushing, figuring I was ahead and had draws in case I went against hands like 10 with a higher kicker or 910 suited.
