Hero??

Villain was quite loose and pretty aggressive as well if I remember correctly.

Are we going for broke here?

Push it all in.

Is that limp out of the ordinary?

Then I probably check-shove against an aggro opponent.

Are we really happy just shoving it all in on the bubble like this? Our hand isn't exactly the nuts here, and without reads I'm not confident we're getting called often by worse hands, and we could definitely be behind. I'd like to see a showdown with minimum risk, but I'm not sure how best to accomplish it.

I wouldn't be happy about the situation at all. Which is why I suggest a c/r. You're right, not many worse hands are calling us. But, against an aggro opponent, worse hands will bet.

It's a tough spot! Are you thinking c/f?

I honestly don't know. I did a hand swap with Paulie, found this hand, didn't know what to do and suggested he post it here. How about check-call and fold to a river bet? But then we're investing a lot of chips without even necessarily seeing a showdown. Check/fold just seems too weak, but a check-raise risks everything (including him folding hands we beat). Maybe we could lead out again and fold to any more action?
