Reads on villian: Pretty solid, but certainly mixing it up. Playing a little tight pre-flop (i.e. letting me raise and steal more than my share of blinds, but sometimes 3-betting). I think his PF raising range is about Ax+,K8+,QT+, PPs, SCs and one-gappers above 76, with him only raising the weaker hands 50% of the time. Post-flop, he's been fairly aggressive with bets and CRs, but he's also made several laydowns. I certainly can't call him a maniac or a calling station. Only a few hands have showed down, and he's bet draws and air along with solid hands, so he's good at mixing his play.

I thought about this one for a while. My hand is nothing more than a bluff catcher, but the board and his line feel like monster or air to me.

Call or fold?
