No real reads on villain, he was running about 37/19/1.94 in 100 hands, saw him shove earlier on the turn with 2nd pair and nut flush draw. Appreciate any thoughts you might have on the situation, thanks.

fold, wait for a better spot.

You only have $13 invested. There is no need to risk the other $71.

Bet more on the flop. Fist pump then mash the call button on the turn.

is there any logic behind your call on the turn? and i realized i need to bet more on the flop after i reevaluated the play.

strange. if he had a boat, shoving here seems like a huge waste of value b/c it shuts out the A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif if he doesn't have it, the obvious straight draw, etc. looks more like either he has a draw and wants you to fold or has a hand that is vulnerable to draws and wants you to fold. i'd put him on something like AQ and snap call.

Oh look we have a boat and he's an idiot. Call.

Based on his stats and previous turn shove, I call this.

Yes, you might run into quads or a bigger full house that he decided to play very spastically (check-call flop, open-shove turn) but that particular sequence of actions (if he has the slightest bit of rationality) doesn't make a lot of sense if he has KK or QQ given how drawy the flop is and how passively he played it. I expect even a fishy player to check-raise his set on a flop like that versus two opponents.

If he had KK/QQ, then you were coolered and he got lucky that his non-sensical line caught you when you had such a strong hand.

In general, I think his turn range must include AA, AdK (and other AKs), flopped straights / flushes, some straight-flush combo draws.

The only remaining consideration is his pre-flop min-3-bet. Some villains will only do this with super-premiums, but you need a large sample size before you can nail this down, and even if you decide his pf range is {QQ+, AKs}, you're still ahead on the turn assuming all of those get open-shoved.

I hope you called here, regardless of the outcome.

Bet more on the flop,

Call the turn.

Looking at the action, what card would you have preferred seeing come on the turn?(excluding the case J of course?)
Sure you wanted to buy the pot right there, however with a three flush/straight out there there is a lot of hands that would call.

It sucks to get cooler-ed but you can't always worry about monsters under the bed.

yea, i did in fact call, anything beating me there make no sense at all to play that fast, the norm for super donks would be a check raise or smaller value bet ther and so i was able to narrow it down to AdAx or Adkx possibly an AQ, turns out he had AdAx river was another king so thank god... thanks all
