    Question if I played this hand correctly, I think this is just a cooler but hoping for some input. This is HU Both of us are sitting on around 450 US He raises J9 heart suit from button to 9 dollars and I call with 75 heart suit. Flop J 4 6 the 6 and the 4 are hearts. I check (with the intention of reraising as he normally C-bets) he raises me to 12, i reraise to 32 (he has previous knowledge of me doing this on a wider range) He then proceeds to reraise on top to 90 and i ship it in for 450 (figuring on trips here or some sort or possibly even a flush draw but felt that unlikely due to his play) Should I have been more cautious with my straight flush draw or is this just a cooler, requesting help please. Regards, SaDuke

    Complete cooler. He won't always have a better flush draw than you, and so you have a ton of outs against his usual range on a flop like that.

    What is his 'usual range' here? With 100 bb's this is an easy shove, but with 225 I think it becomes more complicated. I'm definately flatting his 3b and looking for my massive outs on teh turn. But then again I'm a six maxer and have only dabbled in hu (unsuccessfully so far, bad luck obv) so take it fwiw.
