i have flopped a straight flush open ender, but our russian friend has overbet the flop

help

no reads i think i'd just reraise pre vs this silly sizing?

as played we haven't flopped enough incentive to stick around imo, fold

Given your stack size, I don't see how you can do anything but shove over their bet when you hit a flop like this...

I'd fold pre though actually

fold, can be drawing dead or v v slim, never in amazing shape and our outs may not even be live.

Few comments about this hand. 1) I dont like playing with anything less than a full stack for this exact reason, gets you into some tricky spots.
                                             2) I dont think you should be calling pre. The fact you are not full stacked plays into this as well. You do not have the odds to set mine vs a 3bet playing less than 50bbs. And you cant call oop to make moves post because one, you are oop so its not a good idea anyway and two you do not have a deep enough stack to make any moves.

Pre flop I hate 4betting as you are always priced into calling off vs a 5bet and you will most likely always be crushed or flipping. Sometime you will be ahead but very rarely. So 4bet calling off is defo a losing play long term.
As mentioned you cannot call to flop a set as you are not deep enough, you are calling over 10% of your stack to set mine.

As played I think its super marginal postflop, given your stack size its tough to fold a flop like this. Assuming the other guy folds you need 47% equity vs his range to get it in profitably *+(assuming he is never folding, which given he has overbet is probably a safe assumption vs your shove of only $5 more). So vs his range I highly doubt you have 47% equity, which theoretically makes this a fold. But I cant say I hate getting it in here.

Fold pre, 100% fold flop not even close.

This is a slot where your equity looks a lot better than it actually is.
