Am I donking away chips here?
 
This was a MISCLICK CALL preflop. So PLEASE don't get on me for the preflop call.

Villain is somewhat loose but capable of raising hard on a draw to try to take a pot. Villain also thinks I bluff too much.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 5 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Button ($512.25)
Hero ($232.71)
BB ($184.70)
UTG ($200)
MP ($191.35)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises to $7</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero (poster) calls $6, BB calls $5.

Flop: ($21) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

Hero bets pot, BB calls, MP raises to 100, hero pushes.

how somewhat loose? this looks fine generally speaking.

You're gonna run into an overpair much more often than a set here. You played it fine/perfectly postflop.

I prefer playing poker. See what happens on the turn.

Overpairs are more likely to fold on the flop push.

I think this is a very bad option as we're commiting half our stack and have a VERY vulnerable hand. An overpair with a heart is still 30% to win here. We want an overpair to fold to our allin on the flop (they would be making a mistake).

This is definitely NOT the time to slowplay
