C-bet push an A high flop?
 

Bad loose-limp-passive table where people like smooth calling pf/open limping and Im like the only one 3 betting without the nuts. ITM in the a 3$ FO.

My image is probably bad b/c I'm raising a lot and punishing limpers and one time I did that I flopped well with K3o and went to showdown. Villain has been among the limp-folders looking to play fit or fold in multiway pots.

I think pf here is obligatory at this table, but I welcome debate on that if you want.

Villain has 5820 behind and if he were slightly deeper I'd C/F (though after that if we were both deeper I'd cbet cause his pf range would be bigger).

You have 2 shortsstacks behind, i'd like to get in prf vs them, so i raise preflop more.

I don't quite understand.
Is there range for pushing over 2500 any different than their range for doing so against 3000?

*If no:
than raising to 2500 is better to get away cheaper if one of the 'deeper' players makes a bet I want to fold to.

*If yes:
than they must be pushing wider vs 2500 than 3000 in which case again I would rather bet 2500.

Re: C-bet push an A high flop?
 

No, but u give the blinds the option to call very cheaply. That sucks imho.

Re: C-bet push an A high flop?
 

With your Stack i raise to 4k and call any push execept Btn/UTG.
I don't wanna see a flop.

so it has nothing to do with the stack sizes behind, ur just adverse to 2.5 opens because of the odds they afford the blinds.

A fair position which you aren't alone in, but it's not my approach.

I don't think villain is ever folding an A, but if he folds PPs like 88-TT, this is good IMO.
