I wanted to post this hand and get some feedback, I think I got a little over aggro but I had a solid table image so I felt I played it well;

As a sidenote I showed down a monster with pocket queens hitting top set on the flop the previous hand and before that I had hardly played 1 in the last 20 hands

I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

IF there wasn't a flush draw i could SEE called his 3-bet on the flop, but there is so just get it in before the heart draw gets there...

looks like an air bet by him - cbets the flop, and then re-raises (if he had a set he'd prob smooth call, if he had a good draw he'd call your all-in). you move in and he folds only having to call $56 with a $144 pot.

he either should call with a draw or TPGK, or fold if he has nothing. If he had a hand like JK or a flush draw and folded you should be happy, since he made a mistake.

Nice work IMO

Exactly. Same thing, 100%. I'd rather shove in and take $40 then let come on the turn.

Dont really get it. SB vs BB top 2 = nuts.
Regarding your image, if anything haveing a solid tight image should make you less likely to put it in here since he won't put you on a bluff.
