Ok i seem to be getting into spots like this alot and figure im best of shove rather than flating and then haveing to fold on bad boards or just playing a vulnarable hand oop. I also hate makeing a smaller 3 bet here at low stakes because of how often ppl just flat u but i geuss i could just make a go-go here and perhaps get more value. Am i loseing value by shoveing with 27 bbs here and if so what is the best line to take.

Do you have any reads on the CO. Do he open a lot in late positions. Is he tight, is he agro, ect.

I don't think that pushing is the right play. It all depending on villian. But I would 3 bet to ~110000 and depending on my read, I've fold or call a push.

I don't like flatting because we are out of position and we are too strong to be folding.

CO was running at 23/22 with 36% stl but had opened alot in the last 1/2 hour and i would not have even contemplated folding to his 4 bet pre but was more worried about getting flated and getting in a really tough post flop spot. I know it doesnt make since that i would get flated very often here but it seems to happen alot at these stakes

I dont mind shoving here, both stacks in the 20's in bigs i think its fine. if we 3 bet and get flatted we are putting ourselves in a position where any c bet we make is pretty much committing us so, that's why I would lean towards the shove

That was also my thinking although im just wandering if maybe a go and go line would be more profaitable. Another big reason i thought shoveing was ok is because he makes it 3x if he had min rsed then i would definently like a smaller 3 bet better followed by shoveing most flops
