Default Getting tricky with suited connectors OOP

Felt a bit frisky and decided to open up a bit...

Villain is 59/22/1

Ultimate Bet - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $30.25
BB: $58.40
UTG: $42.10
Hero (MP): $65.55
CO: $36.45
BTN: $59.55

Preflop: Hero is dealt 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.75</font>, CO folds, BTN calls $1.75, SB folds, BB calls $1.25

Flop: ($5.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $4.00</font>, BTN folds, <font color="red">BB raises to $8.00</font>, <font color="red">Hero ??</font>

Is this insta-shove? How would you play it?

thanks all

mm...

i get confused here too, maybe cuz i need higher bankroll when i play but..

wouldn't be better to call down cuz if you hit you'll money,
if you dun hit, you'll lose alot calling down but not your whole stack persay?

we have a monster hand, why not get it in right now.
Calling, I think is the opposite, if a club hits, villain might just slow down and we wont get much value of it.
Its likely something like a 50/50 equity against his range here, so by moving in we will be gaining of all the times he is going to just dump his hand away.
I feel shoving here might be a little too much of an overbet, but just dont see another way of playing it

Dumb question - is the reason that we are shoving here because of the fold equity that it provides, basically making this a huge (meaning strong) semi-bluff?

We're shoving because we have 12 outs. Get it in for sure, your equity tanks so bad if you just call and the turn bricks.
