Oh for a read ($10NL)

With my attention on my other table I call in the CO here although I would normally raise.

Not sure quite what to make of this. If I knew he bet his draws then I'm happy. As it is I'm unsure if he has an Ace which I'm beating, a draw which I'm beating, 2 pair which I'm beating or a set which err yeah.

Pants_101 ???

What to do? He clearly likes his hand, I guess he might have made a str8 although it's not that likely. If I think he'll call a push with AK, AQ, AJ, AT, 98, 76, 88, 99 I should push? What if it's just AK ,98, 76, 88, 99? Could I make a raise to say $6? Just call down? Fold? The problem I have at these stakes is differentiating my opponents with limited info. Some will stack off here with any ace, others will have me well beat. Any thoughts?

just push. He might have a set, but more likely just an A. I also never saw villains at this level bet their draws this strong, so i think you can take that out of his range.

He could have picked up a pair + draw or inside str8 flush draw. Just push it.

Ok cool I did indeed push it, thanks.
