...I board is pretty draw heavy, but what do I do against this shove? I mean, I'm probably calling it because I still beat a lot of hands my opponent can be shoving with, but is this also a sign of me getting married to just an over-pair if I snap call here?

Am I putting too much thought into this?

Given the size of the pot on the flop, the shove is not a huge overbet here. It's a call, imo. You'll find top pair and draws much more often than two pairs (against which you're not that much an underdog) or sets.

I think I am likely calling here especially if, even in the 10 hands or so , you have a feeling he has jackass potential.

I think the raise is fine. Fine for a low info raise. Once I get to know the table I like to shoot for what will fold all but one guy. Often it's much less than 10 bets. That can vary greatly @ 02 but I think 10 bets is a good high generic raise.

02 is kinda odd. You will find some good players down here, and lots of lunatics.

You gotta push here, I mean with the size of the pot there are very few flops you wouldnt get in with AA here. Id expect a draw of the time here as most people who flop a set here would probably crai instead.

I'm pushing here too.
If he does happen to have a set then fair enough.
More likely he has a pair or a draw (or both)

I had almost the same situation yesterday. In that case it was a Td-xd-x flop .I called allin versus a loose players raise. I lost my stack when he hit a flush with his Jd4d :eek::)

Well played. Period.

I bet Philthys hand showed to be similar. Chances favored him winning n that case.
