I just wanted to get some opinions thats all.. I guess you dont want to contribute. What a shock.. I figured I had a few options being so deep and all.. I could have called and peeled a turn. I could have just folded. I didnt have HUD going at the time so I wasnt sure about villians history.. Or I could have done what I did.. Bet Pot Raise with intent of getting it in..

I just like folding out unpaired overs and taking pots down on the flop with decent sized stacks . i prob make a larger raise to 31ish forcing him to shove or fold as long as u have the intention of getting it in on the flop .. but again i havnt played rush

I never claimed to be good or anything.. When im sitting on good stack and a good stack raises me and I can take a flop in position on him. I will call with hands on the bottom of my range. It maybe a leak of mine.. But thats just how Im gonna play.. I mean if he had 40 bucks and he raised from EP. Im tossing j8 quickly.

this statement is so contradicting it hurts my head
(fwiw i think we are formulating the same basic conclusion)

i said flatting is fine if u know what ur doing(ie gameflow, reads, timing tells), but if u dont, which is likely given its rush, then flatting is a leak.

Building a pot with J8 and no reads < calling in position with J8 and no reads.

as others have mentioned, fold pre. as played raise to 30, shove over any stupid 3-bet and OBV call any shove
