    READS: blaniac seemed to be a solid but a bit over-aggressive player.

    My question is this: Do you get it in here? If I put in a cbet for say 100k and he comes over the top, is there anyway I would get away from this hand? Is it better to just shove here?
  2. Bet / call and am happy getting it in here....this isn't a bad board at all.
  3. Getting it in every time here.
  4. Just wanted to be sure I didn't over play my hand. I did get it in.

    I ended up shoving, figuring I wasn't folding to a raise anyway. He snap called with a set of 5's and they held up.

    I ended up crippled and went out 6th. Not too bad, just got the cooler there I guess.

  5. You did overplay the hand though...

    Open shoving the flop is too much....you're giving hands you're absolutely crushing the chance to play perfectly and fold instead of giving an aggressive player the opportunity to make a move and shove with worse hands thinking he has FE.
