    He's pretty tight so he doesnt really have a lot of jacks in his range. He can easily have AK or KQ here. I'd put it in.

    I see c/r with a K or PP more often than trips, so readless I'm shoving.

    Yea didnt see that you have only 12 hands.. So given that he's basicly unknown im never folding.

    not sure about that, but shoving is what i'd probably do.
    We got the Ace of spades that helps more, plus if we just flat we already have 1/3 of our stack inside.

    Re: 5.50 big wierd spot with AA

    why would you suggest shoving there?
    why not call? sure he might be on a draw... but the odds he got K or bluffs are bigger
    how about not betting this flop, just value call. with this flop action ofc he will get it all in on turn/river
    if he doesnt have the jack he might fold to our allin and we get no more value.
    my play on this flop would be to just check and value call all his bets from the start because
    a raise puts u in such situation :/

    I don't see why calling is obvious given we'll have a PSB left. Just jam the flop, he can have draws Kx and sometimes open enders.

    Unless hero has been very aggro lately calling seems a lot better than jamming imo, since he might fold some Kx hands to a jam, you also got the As.

    I think IP calling is better.
    You we would have 1 psb ott, but, at least, we won`t fold out his bluffs and worse hands.

    If he is raising for value I'm pretty sure he is not going to have much of a r/f range if any, and he'll shut down air bluffs ott anyway. plenty of cards can slow down the action ott for Kx, and I wannna charge max for draws.

    I think he has a big enough bluffing range that anything other than calling is bad.
