It's close between calling and folding. I would sigh call, there is a chance that he is valuebetting worse sets. However, if he is straightforward abc nit his range would be polarized to nit spazz and a flush.

I guess this wasn't as interesting as I thought. I did as MadLee. Literally sighed and called. Too bad I haven't received more responses.

Interesting spot to shove since you cover, but maybe only works in plo.

I call here. I don't think I'm afraid of flush or straight. Looks like Villain could have worse sets as stated above. Tough call.

J10 clubs is the only club I see Villian having here, but don't think he leads out on the turn.

if hero is really tight, he cant have acxc here. And if villain holds the jc or 10c jc hero is even more unlikely to have a flush.

I m not sure villain would valuebetting a set of 8 here so i vote for the fold

Now I think that versus this sizing we should fold.

i think folding is out of the question, i like calling more than going all-in as a bluff because a lot of players will assume you not raising the turn means you don't have the nut flush (even if that's not a realistic assumption from our vantage point) and thus they will talk themselves into calling the river raise with a flush.

Yeah I don't like bluffshoving here. Seems close between calling and folding, but people are idiots and with the blocker I'd probably call and shrug it off.
