Does he fold overpair often enough to be profitable?

I don't mind the shove, but seriously, without reads and your own image anything someone else tells you is pretty much going to be useless.

I don't try to get people to fold overpairs, I like that you have plenty of outs if called, but still don't make it a habit to try and get people to fold overpairs

I play super aggro tag. This was Villians first orbitz at the table. I picked up this move from watching Whitelime vs. Ivey heads up. whitelime checked/called raggy flop, turned open ender, check, ivey bet 15.2K and whitelime shoved for 52K on top, ivey tanked and called with Jacks

Just reading the title my answer is generally "no."

However, I think your turn semibluff check-raise is nice here, though I would have folded the flop since Villain led out in a 4-way pot on a dry board.

Thinking more about it, though, if Villain is good he shouldn't be betting the turn unless he's intending to call a shove.
