Paradise Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

MP3 ($5.80)
CO ($13.10)
Button ($7.25)
SB ($32.10)
Hero ($14.20)
UTG ($5.80)
UTG+1 ($9.90)
MP1 ($3.40)
MP2 ($5.10)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8, K. SB posts a blind of $0.05.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.10, 2 folds, MP3 calls $0.10, 2 folds, SB (poster) completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($0.40) K, 8, A (4 players)
SB bets $0.50, Hero raises to $1, UTG+1 folds, MP3 folds, SB raises to $1.50, Hero raises to $14.10

I figure theres a good chance the flush draw will call given the way the table has been playing.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

Bo G is an unknown quantity at this point
Very good chance he is on flush draw but at the same time he could have A8. Bottom pairs on a heavy draw board are very tricky. I would like to see a blank and push on turn.

Why the minraise? If he's on the draw, you're just giving him odds to call. Raise harder to see if he'll dump his flush draw, and if he plays back you can safely dump I believe. A call is trickier. Like Bo G said, if it's a blank turn I'd push, but if the turn is a heart it's check/fold time, but I think you already knew that.

I agree. With a bet brings purpose. Min raise brings nothing.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
