fold. monotone board, and I don't think your top pair is good most of the time. Even if it is, your hand carries reverse implied odds.
Gimme the ace of diamonds, and I'm putting him in.

Right i will try again hopefully my laptop doesn't crash this time.

Fold for me, we must miles behind his range here in fact its stretch to find hands villan will play like this. Hands we might be beating are the 9 and a big diamond or the naked ace of diamonds both which villan rarely has.

call...

there's no reason to shove. You'll just help him fold crap and he'll laugh. Your ahead here most of the time because button almost always has [censored] all, and people tend to overprotect their blinds.

what limit is this?

Response to CTN:
Interesting idea. What are you planning to do on the turn? I think it makes the turn so ugly that we should either push or fold the flop.
