Possibly spew. I feel good, but should I?

Edit: Ok I read the whole post. Did you bother putting this nit tag on a range, or did you over concern yourself with the possibility of someone "outplaying you"?

Neither of the two players stats you've given tell me you should be opening as weak as J8s this early.

When this guy calls pre its alot of broadways, pairs, suited aces etc. When he calls flop, what did you put him on. When you check/called turn what did you put him on. when you bet/called shove spewed on the river...

what did you put him on?


meh, as played flop is ok-ish. Turn I think you'd rather bet because you are still ahead of all of his draws and one pair hands worse than a J, plus you can expect him to start raising his monsters like sets, two pair.

River is just wtf are you doing? check/call is the only line you can take here imo.
