    Default Anyone shoving this?

    Villain has been aggressive PF but passive on the flop. This is the first pot Hero involved in so image (if anyone is taking any notice) is tight. Given villain only calling my re raise of his min raise, I put him on probably AK or or possibly 88-TT. Im sure if he had QQ+ he would have shoved over PF given his PF aggression in earlier hands. Im pretty sure I'm ahead here, so with my stack size, this is an easy shove right? Also, re raise PF needs to be larger?

    This looks fine, a lot of worse hands call. I'd probably bet 600-700 instead of shoving most of the time though. But once you bet you're not folding.

    I bet 400-500 on flop and shove turn.

    Button raise can mean anything, he could have a wide range here. I for one am raising at least Ax on the button plus many Kings etc.

    Not feeling the need to shove the flop though.
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

    Pushing accomplishes nothing
    It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
    Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

    I wouldn't push. A smaller bet can win you the pot. I like around 500-600. Not folding after the bet.

    Reraise preflop looks fine. Half pot or more on the flop.

    I agree, I bet 2/3 pot here and get the rest in on the turn if called. You don't want to scare away hands like A5 or 88.

    Are you guys calling a push after betting 400-500 chips on the flop?
    ^ Worst advice possible, don't listen ^

    Absolutely, every day of the week. The 500 bet on the flop is just a prelude to getting the rest of my stack in with a hand that is very likely best.
