No real reads on anyone, but they are all more solid (selectivly aggressive) than usual opponents on the PokerRoom $55s.

Seat 2: ME [8D,8C] ($5,483 in chips)
Seat 3: Manchester20 ($1,035 in chips)
Seat 4: Simon77 ($3,015 in chips)
Seat 10: iwinulose x ($5,467 in chips)
ANTES/BLINDS
iwinulose x posts blind ($100), ME posts blind ($200).

PRE-FLOP
Manchester20 folds, Simon77 bets $550, iwinulose x folds, ME ???

Your move and plan for various flops if you see one?

Push!! (or raise a lot). This is, for me, the perfect time to bully. In fact I might consider a push with any two. He'll only be calling you with about 5-10% of his possible hands here, and if he DOES..

1) Might be a coinflip (AKs or something)
2) If you lose the hand you're still a good bet to finish in the money.
and ..
3) He's not gonna call you anyway

I definately do not like to see a flop out of position here. He's betting for sure and you wont like it. Rags, he could easily have an overpair. Overcards? well..
