Villain is 37/9 after just 30ish hands, seems bad, no other reads. Just wondering if a push here is really standard, villain only has a little over a psb left.

I doubt he got a straight, looks like missed clubs.

Do we lose that much by checking behind?
I guess 99+ would call a push on the river.

I push here if you think he will call with an 8, otherwise I like betting slightly less than a push just because people seem to call those bets alot more frequently than a push.

mandatory bet

I probably check behind here. What does he call a river shove with that doesn't win the pot? If he'll call with A8 or something like that, then go ahead and push. Other than that, I would check.

Terrible thinking that he will only call with A8. He could call with any random 8, or 99-TT. If he has called this far why wont he call another bet?

I would shove the river, as there is about a pts-bet left.

bet, but not AI, $10

See the only problem I have with shoving here as opposed to betting is that most villains dont think "oh that bet makes sense, its only a psb". They think, "damn thats a big bet". I just find so many people folding to shoves here as opposed to betting like 10-12 and they call, even though the logic makes no sense on their part.

He has played the hand so strange by c/c the whole way. To me he is either on a draw or has a huge hand and is trapping. He obviously isn't calling with a fd, since that missed. I guess he might call with 99/TT/JJ, but he would have played awful on every street if he had 1 of those hands.
