I know this is read dependent, but IMO it's a tough spot and wondering how people normally handle this type of situation against bluff happy idiots. I had played with villain for ~30-45 minutes on a couple of tables and he was definitely bluffing a lot.

Villain's (endoftime7T, if anyone has played with him) stats at the time were around 40/30/2.5 over 100 hands, went to showdown 30% of the time, won 30% of the time. This was the first time he overbet. I checked flop so I could let him PSB bluff on turn and river and would call. I presume he probably put me on like KK/QQ. We didn't have any special history.

Id fold river, flop and turn is K but i bet this flop about 80% of the times. His line is consistant with every hand that beats you.

Against almost all villains I bet this flop. I felt he would definitely bet turn and river almost always, so I decided not to bet.

i think the c/c line is fine, rope a dope and all that. you have to fold the river obviously.

even considering this type of player i cant see a reason to check the flop. because now.. u just dont know what he has.
hes turn bets means nothing as u showed weakness and he is relatively agressive.. so now u just have to give him credit for anything that beats u.

God you guys are so wrong. Checking flop is perfect. Obviously call a normal river bet.

As for the shove, fold if he hasn't been doing that before, but if he starts attacking weakness really hard then you can look at making a call.

I would fold river against such a huge overbet, but would have probably called up to a pot sized bet. Not the best river card in the world either, he could have easily made a flush or even a straight.
