    Default Two pair on a flush board

    Two pair is my most difficult hand, I always seem to have trouble with it.

    PPokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

    Hero ($4.95)
    MP1 =#A500AF(Villain)/ ($0.99)
    MP2 ($1.74)
    CO ($0.88)
    Button ($2.65)
    SB ($6.41)
    BB ($3.04)
    UTG ($2.89)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with , .
    1 fold, Hero raises to $0.08, (Villain)/ calls $0.08, 4 folds, BB calls $0.06.

    Flop: ($0.25) , , (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero ??

    Bet $.20. With top two against a 50bb stack I'm looking to get all in on the flop.

    Well the flop tells you that neither opp has the ace or queen of diamonds. People like to play suited cards, but normally for cheap, in a raised pot it's normally with an ace or KQ. I'm not too scared of a flopped flush here - it's about as likely as 99 - if it happens then whatever and hope your 4-outer hits. Raise just under pot.

    Bet the pot here and re-evaluate on the turn. You don't have enough information here to do anything else at this point.
