I called with the intention of pushing any flop. But when the button raised it was an easy push for the following reasons.

This will be good because that's an easy fold.

1. this guy has been raising with paint and suited connectors and lots more.
[/ QUOTE ]
That sort of covers everything. Are you saying he was raising every hand?
[ QUOTE ]
2. my stack size. (probably should have pushed pre flop anyway)
[/ QUOTE ]
Why? I think you did the right thing. Limp, hope to get in for a bet, play poker. If you fail, push next time. You still have enough chips not to have to push a K.

3. I figure he had Ax or middle pair so I was pretty close to or in a coin flip.
[/ QUOTE ]
In (1), you figure he has "paint", suited connectors and lots of other things. Now you think he has Ax or a middle pair.
Dude, you made a bad bet and sucked out. You are justifying it after the fact. It's okay. We all do it.

Ofcourse he gives me the you're a donk speech and i tell him it was an easy push because he's looser than a whore at low tide and to go hump someone else's leg.
[/ QUOTE ]
So you're a bad winner?
[ QUOTE ]
Thoughts on this? I think under the circumstances it was a pretty good play.
[/ QUOTE ]
The circumstances are you won the hand. In other circumstances, ie, the better hand held up, you'd be thinking it was a terrible play.
By the way, you're 57-43 against TT-66 or any ace except a pair of aces. Your villain was right.
