    Raise more pre imo 150 here so at least 200, nit-picky but they will still call so go for the max.

    Flop just bet standard so here like 350-400, by shoving you prevent him from bluffing/making mistakes, you force him to play correctly.

    Its a bounty hunter , that means MOST will call my all-in with 2 pair , top pair and ofc a flush draw

    Yes MOST will call with those hands but if they don't have them you lose value, you have like the 3rd nuts ruling out different types of flopped flush so don't wanna scare people away.

    I like that shove, good agression. If he was drawing with only one diamond he wouldnt of had the odds to call,
    but think alot of the time players dont think about weather they have the correct odds or not and call anyway!
    Well played.

    I think it may be too aggressive. By shoving, i think you may be folding out a few hands that you beat, for example, flush draws, straight draws and the odd raggy King. I would want them to come along for another street at least to get max value.

    Rightly or wrongly, i would bet about 380 and then call the shove. In this hand, its all going in anyway. I dont actually hate the shove, its a bounty hunter so your right in saying you will get loose calls, but i just think we may keep some worse hands in by betting less.

    much prefer bet 300-350, call it off obv.

    If they have 2pr or better money still goes in. Openshoving means they are more likely to fold top pair and draws, although they will sometimes still call. Also a smaller bet lets them semibluff shove
