If you have reads that he will be isoing wide as you do, limp/shove is fine here.

Yeah I think this is a fine shove. What am I saying?! It's a great shove! He called with 3 4! Don't worry about results of course, you got it in way ahead against a crazy opponent and he called with way worse. I don't like to just call with hands like A8o so much, I would prefer a more connected hand to just limp call, and it's good to keep some weaker holdings in your limp jam range. 👌🏻

Idk what maths says, but I wont push A8 with 36bbs here. Even his range is wide, A8 isnt that hand we are happy to shove .

Great shove, the best possible play considering the image of the opponent. Just bad luck.

It cant be great shove, even we will be called by very trash-push hands like T9, for example we are almost flipping. Yeah, it HU. But how about simple waiting for a good hand, as you said, opponent is very agressive so our monster often will be paid off. He is probably weak player, so we must try to rely mostly on postflop game where we have advantage, its not like we are happy to see how lucky we are with marginal and easy-dominated hands like A8o. Its one of the very first rules for HU - try to play as much postflop game as you can if you feel you have skill advantage. I have just calculated our equity against his range. I gave him 30,7% of combos: all aces, all broadways, all pocket pairs, some suited connectors and connectors with the gap, some suited weak kings and we have 48.727% equity. It is bad.

Very good push if you have seen villain doing this with same weak hands. Obviously he is some recreational player. If your hand would be AA, I would suggest to call and play post-flop letting him bluffing all 3 streets. GL

Good shove, any ace is very strong heads up and even if you are behind you are like 30% to win the hand unless he has aces.
