Look this is easy. If he wasn't messing around and showing cards, and the hand was straight up, there's a 100% chance you would stack him right?

Why should his messing around cost you money? I could see not taking an extra advantage off of someone's kindness, but this is not that. You stacking him is what this hand is meant to be, and it's not fair for you to give that up.

I call here 100% of the time, then get it in on the turn or river (depending on how I think I can maximize my expectation).
Afterwards I tell him to never do that again because I hate to win that way against friendly ppl (apparently I don't hate it against douchebags).
Afterwards invite him for a [censored] awesome expensive meal, you pay everything.

mike,

too fancy imo and slows the game down.

i think shove and show one card is the way to go, but me being me, i might just shove and say nothing.

i still like my line the best. shove, then he will say something along the lines of "you have the nuts?" then you say, "yes."
