I really don't understand it at all. If I was villain and I had better than 1 pair I would probably snap call, otherwise I would confusedly fold.
I'm pretty sure that's the point.. We have 18 outs against one pair hands. I like it if stacks are a touch deeper, but, I think we might be borderline spewing here, as the villain's getting 2:1 if I read the action right.

That's why it kind of grosses me out. But his turn bet is so retardedly weak.

Remember though, this is donkfest 100nl in a casino, these people don't understand poker whatsoever.

When opponents are giving me fantastic odds on a very strong draw I often prefer a call, expecially on the turn. Having said that, due to our very large number of outs I do not hate the shove.

at that kind of game i think you're getting called by any hand top pair or better. if its A10 your ace is no longer an out, if it's 8 10 or J10 your straight possibility is diminished... the problem is stacks are so short. if you think he's gonna fold half the time or more i like the push. it's a gamble but it definitely puts the pressure on and even if you do get called you've got quite a few outs against his likely holdings. i realize you just got to the table and can't be more specific about villain's tendencies... but knowing that kind of game all too well i think you could probably get a good chunk of chips if you hit on the river because the pot would already contain more than $60. like i said i support the aggression and the push, but just calling at a good price then trying to squeeze some value out of the river is a good option too, just depends on your style and feel at the moment.
