Push or fold preflop IMO. This is read dependent push a loose villan, fold against tight villan. Im doing this as you are oop with hand that misses alot.

The flop bet is an interesting one i persnally wouldn't do it as the only you are folding out that beats you is ak.

His stack's too big to be pushing. Fold pf.

I push preflop. if I'm going to call and try and take it down post flop I check raise.

Flop bet was horrible... less than 1/2 PB on a flop like that? Come on.

PF is read dependent. Fold v tighties, shove v looser players.
