Default Hero call time?

Very aggro LAG (35/32) who's been 3-betting me relentlessly on another table and has ~1k (I cover) is main villain. He doesn't seem that good though, and has been getting out of line every street vs. most players (unfortunately, this read can be completely off as I don't have many hands vs. him). He probably thinks of me as weak-tight since I've let him push me around so far (probably 4 folds).

Hand in question: AcTc 6 max. I make it $35, villain makes it $135, I'm oop. folded to me. I think this is an easy fold most of the time, but his 3-betting range was redic. light. So I called... in hindsight, this may be a 4-bet in this spot, but so be it...

Flop is Jh7hTs ($285). I check planning on maybe CRAI. He pushes for ~$850. I've never seen an overbet push from this player on any street. Hero call time?

I don't care about spots really. Is it +EV to call in this exact situation given history and the fact he thinks I'm weak tight.

I can go either way, here.

You're up against a big draw here a ton of the time, but I don't think you're giving up too much, if anything, by just folding.

Gamble gamble.

Never call here. IF you happen to call, he's got TONS of outs with probably something like KQhh or some sort of gutshot+FD like 68hh. Wait for later... btw its better to 4bet to $340 preflop with this hand than to flatcall. You should have jus folded preflop.

this is auto call of the 3bet for me, against most players in fact.

if you were planning on checkraising, obv beat him into the pot.

your c/r was not a semibluff, so its not like you can be blown off your "draw," the only thing that should sway this decision is if you think he doesnt shove as a cbet alot of the time w/ airish hands (hands that have tops of 25% equity)

this is a heavy board but go ahead and gamble to win.

That was what I was thinking Bobbo. I thought his range was heavily weighed towards draw + air hands - w/ maybe a slight chance of AA-QQ, JT. I couldn't see him doing this with a random J or set. I called after some thought - he actually had a combo flush + pair draw for the coinflip. Lucky for me, my hand held up this time...
