50NL - 99 on 678 flush board 50NL - 99 on 678 flush board

BB is 46/7/0.91 after 28 hands
BTN is 75/2/1.06 after 56 hands

Is my call on the flop correct? Should I be pushing on the turn? Both of them are shortstacks and could possibly be playing anything from straight draw to flush. I was just worried because BB donked into turn even though his AF is so low (i haven't seen him make a move for all 28 hands basically). I wasn't too concerned with BTN because he is a passive donk who calls down everything even with air

flop is OK raise is fine too...id be more inclined to raise it up though and get it in for 50BB here for sure.

WTF! Isnt this really similar to the QQ hand where you quoted some guy advising to fold flop??

Is your decision to continue with the hand purely because of stack sizes here?

Maybe read a thing or two about stack sizes... they are one of the most important factors to consider in NLHE.

Fold the turn.

Any heart or 8/9/J/Q/K/A makes the turn difficult to play (23 possible cards). If the turn is a blank are we shoving over any bet? Calling to see the river seems like it will add further complications. If we are willing to shove the turn, then I think it would be simpler to either: shove, raise(commiting yourself) or fold on the flop.

Easy raise on the flop you have a 10-outer most of the time (monster equity). You really want to get it in b/c 99 might be the best hand against an 8 or even a 7. A donk bet is weak and probably a draw in which case you want to make him pay. As played I fold the turn b/c his continuing agression while he is a passive player and a scare card hit is indeed very scary to me.
