Default PLO8 400 - aces up and 3rd nut low

Villain had been pretty aggro pre-flop with a wide range of hands, generally involving a suited ace and a wheel card. Does my line look okay?

PUSH everyday of the week and 3 times on Sunday, especially with your low stack...

If he has A823 or 8823 then tip your cap...You can't worry about monsters in the closet...I mean he has to have such a specific hand for you to be screwed...

I think he has AAxx from that action...

Does everyone still agree if he has a full stack?

Uhh tough spot, but if someone wants to commit 100BB here we cannot scoop him so a fold would be reasonable. I guess he has either 235 or a set of 8 and thats bad news. Maybe with deeper stacks one shouldnt pot on flop but simply call or 1/2 pot but thats a result oriented remark.

Wow can you really think of folding this hand to an aggro pre-flop player? I don't think I could find a fold here...I mean you really have a pretty damn good hand HU (maybe I'm wrong)...

At WORST like borys said, just call the flop...This hand should absolutely never be folded for that...Then if you are questioning you can at least see a turn and see what happens from there...And go into calling mode (YUCK)...

On balance unless I'm playing the tightest of the tight (which I don't think you'll see at this level), there's almost no way I'm finding a fold here...

Wait a minute here: You have Top+Bottom pr, 3rd nut low, backdoor nfd, &amp; there is a doubt in your mind of not pushing with less than a 1/2 stack? What happened turn 5c, river 7h?

If this were full stacked, I'd push against everyone except somebody who would consider this hand example a possible fold.

Well done. Exactly my thoughts when reading the one post about this being a fold -- that poster's advice has typically been *extremely* tight.
