If there is $18 in pot and 2 straddle callers I like making this $25-30 pre. Think of the blinds as a 2/5 game and it makes more sense to make it bigger pre.

On flop, flat and evaluate. On safe turns I am shoving (basically all but an A or K). His range becomes Jx a lot more now that you have gotten the best of him, so he is probably forcing the issue a bit. Sure he will hae 4x someitmes if hes tilted, but thats only a small chunk of his range.

Jamming is the same, but maybe you can keep his range wide-ish by calling.

Its really going in >90% of the time OTT, this is an easy overall spot

By flatting you keep in hands like 77-99 which have little equity vs your hand.

Yeah kind of, but they also are never continuing to a flat since we can't really rep air/there is a ton of bad cards to come. At least if we shove, he can think we're bluffing. I don't think it's a huge deal though, as long as we don't fold.
