2/5 at Mardis Gras in Charleston, WV. I was passing through town, and they had just reopened the room the night before after 15 months of Covid shutdown. The place was lively, lots of drinking.
Our table was creating huge pots due to some drunk whales. The villain in this hand is an older, passive-ish player who wasn't drinking. My image was probably tight/solid - and I had some good showdowns calling down the whale with marginal hands.
The hand; 8 or 9 handed - $10 UTG straddle
Villain has about $880, I have him covered
UTG raise to $35, 3 callers including villain in MP, I call w 9

on button, straddle calls
$205 in pot
Flop: K

UTG check, villain leads $50, folds to me, raise to $185, folds to villain who calls
$575 in pot
Turn: A
Villain checks, hero?? I feel fairly certain he is on a flush draw... Villain has about 575 left. I'm considering shove vs smaller bet. If not all-in, what size?
