BB special vs tricky player.

Villain is 19/2/3 and plays pretty well post-flop. We've played a lot together and I'm pretty sure he knows I'm good.

CO ($92.75)
Button ($81.35)
SB ($51.15)
Hero ($49.40)
UTG ($61.65)
UTG+1 ($23.50)
MP1 ($39.90)
MP2 ($109.75)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25. MP1 posts a blind of $0.75.
UTG calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50, MP1 (poster) checks, 2 folds, Button calls $0.50, SB (poster) completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($3.25) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $4, UTG raises to $15, Folds around to Hero.

His range here is wider than average. A set, AA - JJ, AT, AT[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Ax[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

What's your play and plan for the rest of the hand?

I push...but im noob here.

Still though. It sounds like he limped an overpair. Tax him for it.

Push it baby, he'll call with an overpair if you aren't lame.

I think a call is better than a push here. I think there's a decent chance he has the nut heart draw here, and I am nearly positive I can get the rest in on a blank turn when he's drawing a lot thinner.

I called the flop, and checked the turn, which was the 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. He pushed, I called.

I'm not sure a rational person would put 30% of their stack in on purely a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] draw here, even with the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I can see draw + pair here, as well as the aforementioned limped overpair. I'd bet 3 on the flop instead of 4, but it doesnt make that big of a difference. But because I see him on TPTK or and overpair more than I see him with just a draw, I shove here so I dont have to make a decision on a paired board.
