Really tough spot. Since he is on a medium stack I call here and hope to see AJ or a combo draw. But it really looks like QT. Villain must asume that this flop hit a lot of players and just shoving there shows tremendous strengh, since he expects to be called.

I don't know how you get away from this hand, I'd push as well...

I play it the same. Just difficult to put him on a hand that you beat, except maybe KsTs or something.

Some reads would really help give better responses I think.

This is fine. nh. It's obvious from the turn that you lost to everything but AJ/KJ, but oh well. It's pos ev -- just not the monster ev that you usually have with faced with that decision. You're only behind a couple hands, QT and JJ, everything else is a coin flip with overlay.

Don't post turn and river, either. Seems trivial, but it's like results: it'll color the responses.

Easy decision to get it in.

Super easy call. The only hand to be scared of is QT, and lots of hands shove here that you beat like AJ/KJ/KQ/JT/KT/AT/AQ/various spades.
