Stars 45k Hand: Flop OESD with 11BB, how to procede?
 

Villain has been playing a lot of pots, limping or min raising early with a variety of hands and has generally been playing loose but well post flop. Hero should have his typical Rock of Gibraltar image. How do I procede?

Edited to say: The pot on the flop is actually 70k or so and there are still 50 players left with avg chips at 220k or so.

Not sure, it looks like UTG+1 limped with a decent ace and is now trying to see where the table is at. And as I reread your post, with reads on the villain my line of thinking has shifted. I play super-LAG and this is one of my fav moves: no one has shown strength preflop, if Villain can get MP out of the hand (which he did) he's got position on two random hands. Its a fantastically profitable situation. If you've seen him limp / minraise bad hands from the earlier positions as well as late, I say that its a push. If not, I fold and pick a better spot.

Calling (which will mean that I've put nearly 1/3 of my chips in this pot) is out of the question. Fold or push I say.

I'M ALL-IN BABY!!!
