OK, what is the best play here.....

you flop 2 pair, with 2 hearts on the board, three players in, you have both covered.

First player bets $15 into a $10 pot (estimate) and other player folds, you have 2 pair. You are almost certain other player is on a flush draw. For all purposes here, lets say you KNOW he is on a flush draw. You don't know if he'll call a bet or not.

Do you push $120 into the pot or just call and pray a heart doesn't come?

Probably a donkish question, 'cause I know you want him to chase, but I lost one of these and won one of these last night, and was wondering if I can play it better.

Well if you know hes on a flush draw and you have 2 pair and hes approx 36% to make his flush and hes overbetting the pot, its a no brainer push.

PS. Read Skalansky's NLHE Theory book cause these situations are covered extensively

Push.

He needs to hit a heart that doesn't fill your boat. He is at best about a 3:2 or 2:1 dog.

[aadams_22]

absolutely push

[subsin]

why just call when hes on the draw, push
