    Hand play from live game what would you do

    so i am gone to do this is installments starting with after the fllop

    so i was playing in the lima poker event which has a buy in of a 160. The one thing i can tell you is the level of play is like playing 5 dollar tournament on fulltilt we are nine handed and the table does not understand folding in an option which i like

    Blinds are at 50-100 average stack is 30,000
    UTG limps ( stack is 32k
    UTG plus 1 limps (stack is around 20k)
    i am in the cutoff with I make it 850 all day (my stack is 29k)
    button calls as do the two limpers (button is big stack with 50k)

    3550 in the pot flop comes

    utg bets 2500
    utg plus one flats

    now it is on me What would you do and why?

    after i get some input i will tell what else happen

    I could see one having kj, kq spades, a10, k10, a lot of hands. Depending on my read on the people (strong/weak), I'm either calling and proceeding assuming I'm behind or getting it in if I'm sure they are weak or drawing. If I'm not sure, I'm posting on here and getting advice .

    The board is too draw heavy not to put in some kind of raise here.

    Well.....this is a part of the game I'm trying to improve.....My first instinct is to flat here. I'd be afraid of raising here and not losing the draws, and then ending up in a realistic all-in situation on the turn.....and feeling helpless.

    NOW.....if you look at the simplistic facts of the hand.....what are we behind right now?? We're behind a set of aces, and we're behind KJ. If we're set over set, we're going bust. And if some donk called with KJ and flopped a straight, we have outs and I'd have a hard time making a firm read of that anyways especially with spades out there.

    So.....I really have no problem with a real big raise here, and if we get put all-in....so be it. We could realistically be up against A-10 here or really any 2 pair combo.....a combo draw with a pair, lots of hands that we are ahead.

    And like you said....these players are terrible for the most part....so with that said....the chances of someone overvaluing a hand here is very likely. I'd be hard pressed to fold this on the flop. So a raise to like 10000 would be OK with me....and if someone shoved...whatever....see what happens....I probably have outs worst case

    The UTG player probably has an ace, and UTG + 1 a flush draw.

    I would most likely raise to 8,000 to 10,000. And I'm probably willing to go broke in this spot.

    Depends if you want to see the turn or not before you go all-in (and make sure that spade or J/K doesn't hit). With the level of play, like you said, I doubt most players would play KJ tricky, so the only player I would put on KJ here might be the guy who lead out. Still, that's a stretch.

    I think you'll get called pretty lightly here, so I'd be tempted to go all-in.


    Any two cards...
