NLTRN - A4 on A77 flop OOP
 
This is from memory, so bear with me.

This is a HUSNG, stack are pretty even (1500) with 15/30 blinds.

Preflop, the SB raises to 90, I call with A4o.
Flop is A77 rainbow. I check, villain bets 150.

What's my move when:
1. Villain is loose and not very aggressive.
2. Villain is loose and aggressive.

If you say call, do you check the turn and fold to a bet? (How does the turn being a jack, queen, or king affect your decision if at all).

I fold preflop.

As played, I pretty much check/call this to the river regardless unless I have a read that he would play the 7 like this.

Playing OOP is bad, and I do it too much and its without a doubt a leak. But, A4 is way ahead of his range and I feel like folding is bad. If he's the type of player to fire multiple streets with KJ type hands, can calling with A4 be that bad preflop?

You are ahead of their range a lot, but to make up for it you are dominated much more frequently than with other hands. If it were possible to play flawlessly postflop I'm sure it would be +EV, but it is a very easy hand to run into trouble with while playing OOP.

I call with them sometimes too, but I think it is probably -EV.
