Being OOP I like a check call here better. You can spike an Ace as well that may put you ahead. However, I think calling the reraise is spew.

As played, I fold the turn.

a check call line is so obvious a draw and playing a draw OOP si hard, cause you cant set the price or guarantee yourself a free card. Villian makes it clear on the flop he want no flush chasers so I would fold on the flop reraise. As said many times before: find a better spot.

i don't think leading is that bad. it disguises our hand, whereas check calling here screams fd. maybe lead for something closer to 2/3 and fold to that raise.

I swore I saw a pfr. As I thought it was raised, my line was calling behind the preflop raiser and betting out J+ on the turn. I would not check call an unraised pot.
