with the donks that play these things in the early stages there are many diff ways you can play it.

1- move in...seriously.
2- min raise
3- smooth call
4- raise to $300

granted you have no read, but i'd lay 3.5:1 that this guy is a noob and has no idea what he is doing.

with that being said..the world is your oyster here.

all in

if J9 slow played...u lose...it happens

can't let anyone with a 9 draw to a J here...shut'em out.

Or a flush draw.

w00t, i did it right.

yeah, i think it's a definite push.

raises to 450

How do you play a flush card river..if someone pushes?

The opponents might have no clues he made a bad turn call...so do you have to give him credit for the flush?

if a flush card hits or the board pairs and someone pushes I'm folding

All-in isn't bad, in fact it's great.

BRILLIANT!
