Default line check - $200

Live Game. 8 person PLO $100. (everyone bought in $200)

Enemy has $1200 and is LAG preflop. He is definetely pushing people around on flops, probably playing 60% hands, raising 25%. He can't have cards all the time, but of the 4 showdown's i've seen I've always thougth 'standard.' Due to poor cards my image, if he is paying attention, is nitty. Maybe 30 hands in, never played with this guy. My stack is around $260

10 person-
Kh Ks Qs Jh (notice hearts)
Call, call, 4 folds, call, I raise $12 button, 2 calls

Kd 7h 4h. I have 2nd nut flush draw, top set.
Flop: check, check, I think and POT. Fold, big stack calls.

Turn: 2h. Big stack checks.

I think for a long time. He has either 0 outs, or is trapping with the ace high flush draw. I was thinking it seems like a situation where I win small or loose big. However, he is aggro and I'd like to win whatever is possible. He might think 2 pair is good, or push a small flush or blush. So I bet 1/3 pot. what do you think here?

He hesistates and repots. I only have about $40 left after this.

my thoughts are fold or raise, and I can't stomach the fold. So I push.

Thoughts?

Does your play change at all if you think guy is nitty?

Yeah, as i was posting I was thinking it was obviously standard.

how about this. Can anyone make an arguement for checking the turn? If we are beat, we are beat, but nothing can improve. Also, they could take a shot. I don't see it, but just wondering.

Assuming you are playing an ultra nit, can you even play this hand different? I can't see it, but just wondering.

If my opponent was ultra aggressive and will fire the river alot of the time I might check to lull him into betting the river

Against an ultra nit I still think you're felting here a bunch of the time, but checking behind and then calling a bet would be fine too

But the hand you posted is super standard fo sure
