$55 doesn't look like a boat to me, so I like a shove.

Shove and expect to lose to QQ or JJ a small portion of the time.

no c-bet on the flop? Can u explain that cuz Id usually do it and would like some insight to y u just check here. On the river Id raise it.

I might be wrong, but my guess is that he didn't want to win it right there, the chance he has the best hand is big, but the chance he's getting called by a hand that missed small.

am i missing something here, what weaker hand is calling our push? A9, QJ perhaps.

Im not sure a push is +ev.

I prefer a value call here.
