Blind battle with Axs
 

I've been on the table for a few orbits. Villain has been in most flops and raised a time or two.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB ($13.15)
UTG ($25.45)
Button ($26.44)
Hero ($27.45)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $0.10.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero (poster) raises to $0.9</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $2.5</font>, Hero calls $1.75.

Flop: ($5.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets $3</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises all-in</font>

Standard? Spewing?

Fold pf to the rr.

Pushing the flop is your worst possible line. Better hands call, worse hands fold and you are either way ahead or way behind.

Wow I don't like this at all. If you want to call this PF you're looking for hearts, not aces. Youre only ahead of Ace-deuce. If you think BB might have KK/QQ, best to call down for a cheap SD - but I'd say you are behind here.

His $3 bet commits a sizable chunk of his remaining stack to this hand. My thinking is that if I call here, I'm likely committing to playing for his stack anyway.
