I played this a few days ago, I'm not quite sure why I was so aggressive, perhaps I had seen him play very loose earlier. Villain in question is 50/21 over 14 hands Is it okay to get it in on this flop.

Is line okay versus his short stack (albeit he's not super short)? I think he is doing this with Kx, FD at the least. At 2nl I would play this the same way against 60bb stack but at 10nl I seem more apprehensive perhaps due to the fact that it is more money.

Hello buzzinowt,

Against that kind of stack I doubt that we can do much here. I am also planning to play for the stacks. Nice hand!

Although most likely I'd 3bet bigger at least 4x.

Best Regards.
