    Villain is a pretty solid player who c-bets almost all flops. He had lost a big pot flush over flush the hand before. Do you call here?

    thats a big overbet on the flop, yeah you are probably ahead.. but id just fold.. there is still a good chance you are dominated, and even if you are ahead opponent probably has 2 overs with a decent chance of sucking out.

    Waiting in the shadows ...
    I re-raise to $1 pre-flop cuz he's short and probably on tilt. Call a re-push, push any flop.

    I don't like the call pre-flop. You don't have odds to play for a set, his stack isn't big enough to play poker post-flop and over 50% of the time over-cards are coming. I open push that flop, if he has a Q or overs good for him. As played I probably still call. It could be 77-99, AK, etc.

    I also like to gamboool with short stacks.

    woops didnt realize he was all in there on the flop.. i call as well.

    supershortstacks like bluffing those spots, if he actually had a q or overpair he wouldve slowplayed.

    I called.

    But as a shortstack like that is not pushing hands like KQ,QJ, QT on that flop aside from missed brodways and low pp's.

    so he had a q? take a note on him and reload. many short stackers ai with missed AK/pps on flops like that. and c/r when they hit.

    FWIW he's not a short-stacker
    Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

    He didnt have AQ, he had 55 and I ended up winning the pot but was questioning the call afterwards.
