NL100 - AQo multiway pot vs. shorty flop CRAI.
 

Villain is 40/10/1. He's pretty bad but I've been at table only for a bit and have seen nothing egregious. Villain has $62.

Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG calls, CO folds, BTN(hero) raises to $4.5, SB(villain) calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop($18): A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $14, Villain is all-in for $58.5, Hero..?

My first thought here was a pretty easy call, I mean we're losing to AK and 55 really, not seeing AA or KK here I don't think. Opinions?

Super easy snap call.

This stuff happens all the time and they show up with any ace or any king tons here.

You probably came up against a big hand which is why your checking your play but by calling in these spots you will make a lot more long term.

I think this is a call, although maybe somewhat reluctantly.

If villain has been splashing around on flops a lot it is an easy call obv., but if this is the kind of 40vpip who sees tons of flops, but doesn't like to get it in unless he has flopped big, obviously a much tougher decision.

IMO call reluctantly.

call, no need to overthink it
