Villain is 20/12 AF 4.8 over 856 hands (my hud is filtered). Std steal, even though this flop hits his preceded pretty hard I have good equity and I have 3 outs to the nuts. Turn, he bet small again and I called. On river even though I have great odds I doubt he is going to bet the river without 2 pairs or a straight. How would you play this hand?

You can also limp, so that you don't have to raise/fold a hand as good JTo.

Postflop-I think you can put a lot of pressure on this guy, it's the bubble, he can definitely have many draws, but rarely a very strong hand as:
1-he is prolly betting bigger to protect against draws
2-even if he flats AA/KK, he's for sure not betting 1/3 on a board that's so wet

Given JT high doesn't have showdown value, given our outs(we have 2 overs and a gutter) and the added FE we gain due to the fact it's the bubble, I am just gonna shove on the flop.

Having a player to act behind is not great, but once again-having 2 overs and a gutter so short is good enough imo.
