Villian is 18/6/2.8

The only thing I can say about him is I saw him pull the exact same move earlier...smallish raise(this one was from EP though) and he raises AI and gets no callers..Is he just pulling this with AA?

So do most of you call or fold here?

Thanks!

Fold.
Villain is making a huge mistake here,
not matter what he has.
And it is very easy to exploit:
Wait for AA or KK.

It would be a call if he was doing this frequently,
and you had seen him show down crap like AT.

Fold. His nitty stats scare me.

i'd say the odds of a 16/6 picking up a hand he's going to shove like this while you have aces or kings is pretty slim.

if he keeps shoving like this though you can probably look him up with something like tt+,ako+. but by that point he also wouldn't be a 16/6 anymore

y not let it go... i think you can get your money in much better. if he's doing this with 22 your a coinflip. if he has JJ or better you are a slight dog... do you want to take those odds for your stack? i fold.

villain has hands worse than JJ (and i'm being very generous here) exactly never

yep, I'm with Shaddux too especially if they're over a decent sample size.

Like ticks says if he does this often with KK- then you'll get the chance to stack him.

Assume he has QQ-JJ AK+ (given his PFR)then you're still not in particularly great shape. 55/45 equity Ak vs QQ- I think.

Of course.
But if villain turns out to be a real nit, then waiting for AA/KK is all you can do.
The best thing from Hero's pov about his play (assuming villain is a nit) is that you can steal his blinds all day long, and then easily fold when he fights back.
