$10 table - flop nut str8t

SB: $10.02 (Hero)
BB: $12.59
UTG: $10.37
UTG1: $10
LJ: $10.07
HJ: $12.22
CO: $2.14
BN: $16.92
Preflop ($0.15) (8 Players)
Hero was dealt 8 9
UTG folds, UTG1 folds, LJ folds, HJ folds, CO raises to $0.35, BN calls $0.35, Hero calls $0.30, BB calls $0.25
I'm getting good odds to call and CO and BT are both very loose playing almost half their hands. If I hit my hand they're likely to get money in as they're both aggressive pf. BB is pretty tight and won't 3 bet unless he has a top pair
Flop ($1.40) 7 T J (4 Players)
Hero bets $1.05, BB folds, CO raises to $1.79, BN raises to $2.53

I figure I'm probably up against a flush draw and perhaps a set or 2 pair or even a pair and a gutter type hands. Easy shove or just raise?

I would just jam. I think in theory we're meant to be making a smaller raise but I think he will call way way way too much when we shove so would just let him make that mistake.

It's a shove vs two loose players, one of which is all in. The donkey that raised you is never folding...

I'm not sure you had GOOD ODDS TO CALL pre. . Everyone folded to the cut off, who had no stack. I know the button called but I would have probably waited for a better spot vs the two of them, one that especially involved position.

I know a lot of people call there so I'm just saying, it's a fold for me, when I'm being conservative. Unless, I know I can outplay the players in the hand and it sounds like you were playing two people that can't be outplayed.

Well the one thing about suited connectors is that you know right away on the flop whether you have a hand or not and this time I did. I didn't have direct odds pf but certainly implied odds. In this actual hand if I had just called or raised small OTF BT would have probably shut down on the turn, although not sure if he would have found a fold.

I did shove with my straight and BT called. Turn was 2c and river was 3s. CO had 7c8c and hit his flush and BT had Jd10d for top 2 and bdfd. I wanted to see if this shove was correct against this action. Came out ahead as end pot was $22.53, CO got $6.44 and I got $14.97. Of course if their holdings had been reversed I would have gotten stacked. So funny, we all had SCs. Can see why they are considered speculative.

I was surprised Equilab says on the flop I had just under 40% equity, CO had over 38% and BT had under 22%. I would have thought the made hand would have been more dominant.
