Please tell us you're kidding.

its a fine read.. how do you want him to phrase it.. the guy has been gonzo every hand he's seen and he noted that it was a small sample.

i'd call the turn and show this down. i am not folding, but i don't want to spend 4 BB's on the big street either. might help solidify the read.

"D'oheth!"

a) OP never said that the guy had been gonzo on all 6 hands; and b) there's plenty more information that needs to be included if you're giving a 6-hand read, e.g. has the OP only seen 6 hands with Villan because the Villan just sat down (establishing a table image) or becuase the OP just sat down (much more likely, imo, to be reasonably construed as being a maniac), was the Villan short-stacked, yada yada. To me this smells like a "read" that is provided to justify the turn raise, that's what I'm driving at.

fwiw, I'm likely to call this down as well against an unknown, which is what we have here, not because of some made-up read.
