Total pot 2340 | Rake 0
Board [3d Jc 2c Ad Js]

Seat 2: Quinner777 (button) (small blind) showed [Kc 5c] and lost with a pair of Jacks
Maybe someone can help me with the math here. My thinking in this hand is that villain has two pair. Giving me a 33% chance to win if she does. Before I make the final call of the all in there is approximately 1700 in the pot already, and I have to call about 500 more. Therefore I'm good with this call right?? Am I doing correct math here?? As it turns out she had an overpair and we were flipping coins anyway.

Unless you think they have Checkraisebluff in their book, I hate the raise after getting checkraised.
In this spot, checking behind him on the flop would have been the better route, but I don't mind the bet either to see where you were. Still with his check/raise, you have to figure he either hit or wanted a small pot. Give it to him and wait for the next hand.
If you want to learn something here think about stack sizes and fold equity.
K5 is kinda garbage(even for HU) but whatever. You have raised your button and flopped a flush draw. When he C/R you here you have 2 choices:
1. Fold
2. Ship it
Raising to $600 just makes no sense in this spot because of what is in the pot and what he has left in his stack. If you are going to play draws aggressively you need to maximize your fold equity.
