i think a call is good here vs. this villain.

he's definitely aggro enough PF to 3-bet AK. and the disparity between his VPIP and PF means he's cold-calling w/ more than just PP's

What do you do if he then bets 2/3-full pot on turn? Fold if we don't catch a backdoor flush?

If we do get a backdoor flush? Call to spike? He's repping a hand that beats ours, certainly.

I'm not OP, but these types of situations I think are the toughest situations in poker.

Doesn't mean he's check raising with more than a set. Call might be okay, but turn is a fold unimproved.

Call flop, fold turn. He shouldnt and probably doesnt try to push you off an Ace here and your hand is pretty face up.

i call and fold to big bet on turn unless catch something. smells like 2 pair to me
