totally disagree. this is plo not hold em. there are too many scare cards that could kill action from undersets- nfd+gutters aren't folding to a shove with a third of their money already in the pot. flatting could be a good play vs a spew tard but op doesn't seem like a spew tard. what's the benefit to have your flatting range including top set with someone who isn't a spew tard? so maybe he folds 55 no draw? but when that's the case you should also be jamming your monster draws and top set should be in their for balance.
honestly all villian is doing by flatting when i'm trying to shovel piles in with jj910 is doing me a big favor on crap turns.
