Holding a Small Pair

[Straight_Up_Pimpin]

Here's a question for all you VP experts:

If you have a small pair and then 4 to a flush or 4 to a straight, do you hold the small pair or go for the straight or flush? Usually, if I have the 22, 33, or 44, then I go for the bigger win. If not, then I try for the straight or flush.

Any advice?

I wouldn't go for a flush unless there's a face card present. Get rid of the pair, though, because there's only 2 more of those cards in the whole deck, but there are 9 chances to make the flush.
