Default 25NL Flush draw + gutshot, facing big overbet

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $72.35
Hero: $37.80
CO: $25.80
Button: $24.55
SB: $30.15
BB: $21.05

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $1</font>, Hero calls, 4 folds.

Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($2.35, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $9.5</font>.

Hero???

All I can eat or should I wait for a better spot? Villain was VERY aggressive with almost any piece of any flop and I was just waiting for a spot to double up. Is this it?

shove. hope he has AA and not AhJh. The only hand that dominates you is Ahxh so im pushin. I dont really think you should call here, its more of a push or fold situation, and in this case u cant fold

i think this is a great spot. I dont think this overbet is ever a sign of strength here. AhXh will bet small to induce a raise, so i think AA is your worst case. poosh.

Can you handle the variance? I doubt you have any FE, and you're probably even money against AA/KK/AT/TT/pair OESD combo, slightly ahead of Jx/9x/8x/QQ, dog to a set.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Turns out I had the best of it as he had A8 no heart, so I had 18 outs. But you can't hit every draw. Just wanted to make sure this wasn't a spew.

I love it whenever I have the opportunity to get myself all in on the flop with this kind of hand. And I think you should consider your draw better than just the 12 out flush/gutshot combo. Against an aggro donk your overcard outs will be good at least some of the time, as they were here.
