42 hands on donny donaldson...

38/19/1.6 (43%)

He's got a 20% 3bet preflop, but its a pretty tiny sample to judge much.

UTG bets $0.55, Hero ....?

What are my options here? Is a call too obvious if I hit my flush or does he have a big hand from UTG enough times that it wont matter? Is a push profitable? Should I stick to playing guitar?

I think you raise and if he shoves call...By raising I think you give yourself to win the pot right there without seeing the turn and if he does shove over your raise your a slight underdog at worse.

No reason to raise when we have showdown value. We only fold out worse hands. Not to mention that we still have a decent amount of money behind, and he's giving us great odds to draw. I flat this for sure.

I agree with C9, there isnt enough evidence to suggest you have any fold equity here with the limp reraise and flop bet. Hes giving you decent odds to draw with a bunch of outs, so you should take them. Additionally if he has something like 1010 here where hes practically drawing dead, he may keep making dinky little bets on the turn and the river.
