Given stack sizes, I think this bet has the best chance of sucking in all his chips on the next street.

What's your read like on this guy? Any chance of him maybe willing to see 1 more card for $7 on a flush draw? I've been getting outdrawn a lot on flushes lately, so am probably a bit paranoid, but would still be wary.
Personally I'm raising to $21 here instead of $14 ... am I making a pretty bad play here?

No you're not making a bad play.
I forgot to preface this by saying the villain in question is a drunken Pay-off Wizard. He doesn't need to have a flush draw here or even a pair.
Normally, though, I can't worry too much about a flush draw against a single player.

Good bet and good raise there DC. If you do not see a  on that turn I think I would pop him real hard after the turn.

Hopefully, for his sake, a very good chance.
