4-handed vs. UltraLAG

Situation:

$20 buyin NL, .25/50 blinds... down to 4 players

Hero has about $25
Villain has about $40

Villain is very very aggressive. Knows I'm tight, and for weeks has been coming over the top of my bets in attempts to buy the pot. Often caught bluffing with nothing.

Hero is on the button, and dealt: K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
2 people call
Hero raises to $1.50
other 2 fold
Villain reraises to $3
Hero calls.

Flop: ($5 or so)

Hero leads for $5
Villain raises to $10

Hero ???

Notes on villain:
- will re-raise preflop with anything from 99-AA, but will usually try to slow play huge hands (QQ-AA)
- will always just call with low pockets (that I've seen in playing with him for months)
- will re-raise with hands as weak as AJo
- will bluff any suited flop with a big raise against tight players

With these notes in mind, I figure he has something like AQ,AJ,AT, AA,QQ,JJ,TT,99 , possibly 2 spades

Holding the King, despite the crappy kicker, I decided to push here to keep out any of his flush draws or draws to the ace.

Thoughts?

Villain calls and shows TT.

Hero is now 94/6 to win.

Villain, of course, catches his ten on the river for trips. But it's ok, because "he had a feeling it was coming".

I've now lost 8 sessions in a row at this live game for big pots where I was 90%+ to win. I hate poker.

My reads at the table have been spot-on, though.

Given your reads I think u made the right call. You got all your money in the pot when u were way ahead. Two outers some times win. That's poker.

Given your read, this is a push.

technically, but he would like advice on the line he took with the reads he had.

Didn't mean to make it a bad beat post...

I really wanted to know what people thought of the push. It felt a little too aggressive to me.

With my stack size though, I figured calling or raising was pretty much committing me either way.

Anyone else just call here to see the turn and then decide? (push w/ any non-spade) ?

Ok, and now you want advice. Next time don't post [censored] bad beat threads across multiple forums. Oh and easy push given reads.
