    don't really come by situations like this very often.

    Seems fine to me. My usual saying is that an overbet like this is very often a weak hand that doesn't want a call like a draw, bottom pair or a complete bluff, so the shove over is fine with top pair and a gutshot draw to go with it.

    You have the best hand here most most of the time, there are lots of hands he might make this overbet with that have lower equity than you. That combined with a little Fold equity, (Although he should call with most hands after you shove, but he might not know this) I shove this.

    BvB you probably have the best hand.. think of it as an HU play.. I'm sure you would do the same.. his bet is just silly and means nothing IMO..
