Default ($33) Big Blind defense vs strong regular - wtf is he doin??

Villain has 13 avg roi, 31 avg stake over 6k games. That would be at the very top of long term results for such stakes on full tilt.

I usually do not blind defend much but I kinda know how this guy plays and with his stack size and knowledge of blinds, he is making this raise with a fairly wide range, and my plan was to CR him with a variety of flop textures, this of course being a great one.

So, a few questions here - should this be a standard PF fold? Also do you like the flop play, and wtf is villain thinking here being a highly profitable multitabler, and prob knowing that I am also one.

I either muck pre or shove, I don't really like flatting OOP. Probably leaning towards folding. If you miss the flop, are u really going to CRAI with air? Flop is fine as played.

Well played by you. I don't know what he's thinking in calling your flop all-in. Make note of it, knowing you made the correct play and move on.

Fold preflop and it's not close at all.

You don't want to call 20% of your stack with K9s.

Flop is good as played.
