Straight flush draw - thoughts?

Recommended Posts

Me and villain had a fair bit of history, he'd made a point of stealing my blind 3 times the last 5 orbits, I had 63o etc every time and gave em up. He'd actually made a point of telling me he wanted my blind in the chatbox lol. He opened from the cutoff for 2bb (antes were in the pot too), he'd raised 3x his last steal attempts i think. I read this as weakness and popped it up hoping to take it down now but with a semi-genuine hand from the SB. BB folds. When he flats I'm 90% sure I'm ahead (at least 50/50) and I flop a gutshot straight flush draw. Wasn't pleased with the paired board but he doesn't have QQ ever here. QT is a possibility though. I bet 1/2 pot (my standard bet) and he minraised. What next?

Oh and the tourney had a 1st prize of $2500 and 2nd prize of $109. I wasn't too worried about busting, just getting chips. 22 players left, 20 cash (but I think we were all playing for 1st).

Re: Straight flush draw - thoughts? Given the wide range of hands he could have here, I don't think you can be too worried about the full house, especially as he raises you on the flop. He may have trips but, again, is he raising that on the flop? So in most instances you have any A, K or club for the pot. If I'm playing to win the tournament (which everyone always should be), I'm getting all my chips in on the flop if possible.
