    Read: GJB100 has been very active but betting large, at times 2 times the pot or all in. So his flop call looked stronger than normal, as if he was inviting me to raise.

    Don't be results oriented; there was no need to throw your money away on an overpair with three people in the hand. Easy fold. It's just too bad he didn't pull that shove pre-flop.

    never folding here, as u mentioned they had been active, shaman can easily just be shoving a hand like Q10 here and GJB can easily be calling with a draw, doubt you should fold in this type of game.

    Obv. I guessed wrong, but GJB had been shoving so this looked lke he was trying to suck me into a made hand. He had been isolating with draws and avg. made hands alike.
    board texture just looked too bad for an over pair here, but cheap games are hard to figure some of these guys out.

    This is the easy answer. First time you see him make this move, snap fold. Next time you see him make this move, snap call.

    First time, you should give him the benefit of the doubt, especially since you know you will be seeing his cards and what kind of hands he will make this move with. Second time (since you now see what to expect) snap call.
