Tough/aggressive six-max game online. You raise it up to $70 and get a call from the small blind. Flop is 7

. SB checks and you fire $140. The SB check-raises to $450. You flat-call. Turn A
. The small blind leads for $720.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Raise all-in
Now you have top pair with your nut-flush draw. The pot is too big to fold now with such a big hand. By shoving you can win the pot three ways - by having your opponent call with a worse hand, by having your opponent fold, or by having your opponent call with a better hand but you hitting your flush or kicker on the river. Shoving all-in gives you the most ways to win, so get it all-in.
