This flop is a pretty frequent raising situation for me, and if the original raiser had been first to act instead of second I probably would have (draw + squeeze = profit). I thought he tabled his hand there (overpair) but as a result I thought I'd stand to make more money by hitting my hand (especially if I made trips or two pair), so I flat-called the two bets. It was also weighing on my mind that we were both pretty deep at the time, and that keeping in player #3 for one street would be fine.

By the way, villain here was a tight and somewhat curious player. Raised pre-flop with a standard range, didn't play a lot of hands, never 3-bet for the hour I played with him, and most interestingly never c-bet either. If he missed the board he checked it.

What do you think? me=stressball

Get it on flop or turn. But i'd be very wary of this soultwister guy. If he has a higher flushdraw you could end up losing a lot here. So yeah shove flop. Maybe buy yourself some outs.
