Villain is 46/7/1 but only 30

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Is this just spew?

Yes. A 46/7/1 isn't likely to give you much fold equity. Someone like that apparently doesn't like folding, so you're likely to get paid off if you hit your straight - so put your money in when you're ahead, rather than when you're behind.


Just calling the turn is fine.

With just 30 hands this is true, but one needs to keep an eye on the postflop play of players who are very loose preflop. Many of them are much more straightforward postflop and end up with very marginal hands that they are willing to put some money in with, but will fold to significant pressure.

In general you should really pay a lot of attention to players who are very loose preflop as you are very likely to have them involved in any hands you play.
