| looks more like a value-shove than something "too aggro" |

| Certainly raise, shoving might be a bit much. |

wait! I shoved, getting it all in as a huge underdog, isn't that what this game is all about avoiding?... Letting my opponent go hog wild may have set off alarms. I may have made the laydown of the century instead of stacking off with a 2 out draw.
-edited because we all know I wouldn't have.
--edited again... Also, technically, didn't I turn a valueable showdown into a bluff? Which is also a Poker no no? |

| your point is right. I just wanted to make sure that no-one was going to call me an idiot. Fnord just said... meh.. maybe I wouldn't have gone as nuts. So it's a moral victory. |

By raising as big as you did, you're ensuring you're only getting called by a flush. But you definitely want to get it in on this flop unless he's a crazy nit, in which case you don't want to raise the flop in the first place.
But you have such good equity against his range here who cares if he showed up with the nuts this time? If you lose to an overset on the flop one time does that mean you should stop stacking off with bottom set? Hells no. |

| I think the raise size is bad but raising is real, real good. You're not folding it - there's almost nothing he can have except a made flush (to the Q, K, or A) that you don't have good equity against. |

| I don't like seeing a flop with jacks with 3 others. 3betting preflop I think makes this hand easier to play. |
