Should I push or should I call?

Take a look at this hand of the week and let us know how you would play it.

This week’s hand of the week comes from Italian user alborto and his Ace pair hole cards (, ). Sitting on the button in a 4-player NLHE Cash game at PokerStars, Hero raises and is called while the other two dropped out preflop.

However, our coach katewalker1 disagrees, believing that the call flop was a reasonable option, with , we have a nut flush re-draw and by raising we get value from any overpairs while forcing oppo to fold the bottom of his range when he would probably also have bet on the turn.

Most users agree that we have to call turn, but what would you do next?
