I'm not sure how to use the hand converter with hand histories from titan so someone could explain that quickly as well if you like.

50NL Hero ~150 bb on button, villain in bb with ~100 bb

table has only been running approx 2 rotations but I may already have a spewy image because I have been getting hands like crazy and not showing anything down so they may think I'm a donk. I haven't played with villain a lot but he is an average reg.

Folded around to Hero with AhKc, Hero raises to 1.75, villain calls 1.25 from bb

Flop Kh5s4s

Villain checks, hero raises to $2.5, villain raises to $8, hero ??

I could see him flatting pre with AK KQ KJ K10, AsXs or 44/55 and making this play... No real reads to determine more. He could even have air here considering I've raised like 50% of hands in 2 rotations and most/all in position. Advice?

If you think he thinks you're spewy then probably put in another raise to induce a shove. I'd make it like 20 then call when he jams. You may run into a set of 44 or 55 occasionally, but you have to play the hand based on your table image, as long as you assume he's aware of it, if you want to get max value.

This line seems fine to me.

Took that line, he shoved with 44, wasnt sure if it was bad or if it was just being results oriented or w.e. He knew/thought he knew I'd be cbetting with anything so it was an ez slowplay. There is enough i can beat to make it +EV I guess. Thanks

While reading this post I didn't think he had 44 or 55 or KK, probally something like AQ, but no I see this.

Okay. Seeing as the result has been told this will seem like the wonders of hindsight, but...

Here's what I think and what I was gonna reply, even before I read the full post...

(Assuming you brought in full and are now slightly up).

I'd min-raise the flop. You've now put in 17.75 and have $23 behind.

I'd fold if he comes over the top again and be committed if he calls. AK is a fantastic hand in this spot, but if villain re-raises I think his hand is very likely to be even more fantastic, so it's time to give up.

If you'd like to minimize the amount you win when ahead, and get bluffed out of the pot a lot, this is what you should probably do.
