Re: Do you gamble here?

I lead this flop 98% of the time but the players at this table seemed to be making a lot of small post flop bets so I was planning to shove over top of another probe bet and got hit with his push instead. I thought with that line I may be able to fold out a weak ace but if I bet and shoved if raised the ace would be committed to calling me.

Well you said in your description that villain hadn't been getting out of line so I doubt he's in there w/ a weak ace you can move him off. If he got an ace, it's probably a decent one and he's calling your flop c/r. Also by checking you're giving him the oppertunity to make this play. If he check behind that's not great either because if you miss what are you planning on doing on the turn? Lead? what do you do if he calls and you miss on the river as well. just bet the flop, the pot is big enough in relation to your stack to take down right away.
