HU --- how aggressive on a 8 or 9 out draw

[sjay2k]

I don't like calling too often because you'll have to lay down the hand if you miss the turn. That leaves us with...

1. A small raise to get our opponent to check the turn and see a free river.
2. A big raise as a semi-bluff if our opponent is weak.
3. Push if it's the nut draw with overcards and the pot is large.
4. Fold depending on the weight of the following factors: if it's the low-straight draw, or the non-nut flush draw, two suited cards on a straight draw, our opponent doesn't have many chips behind them, our opponent is a TAG and unlikely to pay us off or our opponents are so bad that we can find much better spots.
