2/4 - Can\'t put villain on a hand range, so I call?
 
Villain is new to the table and stats show slightly LAG over a very small sample size, haven't seen him do anything tricky in his two orbits so far.

<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $40</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $160</font>, Hero calls $120.

Final Pot: $394

What plays like this other than 88 or a bluff? I considered QQ+ might check/pot control the turn and decide to raise river when I only half pot (but its not even that weak of a block bet), but that's a pretty big value raise with just an overpair. J8 and 68 are possible but discounted from the UTG raise.

57 and 88 are a lot of his range here..even 68.... I really think calling here is kinda meh.

I'd prefer to have a better read. I agree the raise is a bit big which indicates a bluff is possible, but I think I'd still pitch it.
