$1/$2 live NL cash game. Game is playing pretty loose.

I have some solid aggressive online players to my left from what I have seen so far.

Stacks:
Hero: $190
Villain: $250

Hero UTG+1
Villain UTG+2

Hero has AKspades and raises to $18 (this has been standard raise to get 2-3 players for flop)

Villain calls along with 2 others


Pot: $75
Flop: Kd 9d 3c

Hero leads for $50, Villain raises to $125, folds, folds

Hero ???

I feel villains range is:
- flush draw
- set of 9s, set of 3s
- Some sort of bluff to make me fold a K

I have ~$120 behind, based on villain still having two others to act after his raise, I don't feel he has a flush draw as much as he would heads up against me. Would you agree or can this still be a flush draw?

Do you guys fold here or shove? (calling would leave me with only $45 left and I don't feel like is an option)

Thanks.

No time for a "he flopped a set on me" soul read fold in this spot! Villian has all sorts of combo draws here (1 pair/gutterball, sick combo flush/straight draw, KTo+) esp if there are solid aggressive players and the table has been playing fairly loose... bloated pot pre with a chance to get it in TPTK here is very fine esp with the pot odds you are laying and what you have behind imo

Ok thanks, I did shove. He flipped over 33 for the flopped set, but like you guys just stated, I realized i was getting over 2-1. Just wanted confirmation that I wasn't out of line by shoving here.

Why do you want to go up against 2 or 3 other people? Raise more pre. A $40 raise to and iso with one other player results in the same size pot, with 75% equity versus 59% equity against two people....

I assume you figure in advance when bet $50 on the flop that you may have to play for stacks. Isn't that why you bet $50 on the flop? I don't think you bet $50 on the flop with a backup plan of folding. Right? So, go ahead and call because this is what you've been looking for. How can you fold a SPR of 2.3. Just call and rebuy No matter what you do from this point on (folding or calling), don't expect making money.

Che,
