Default 400nl - Boring Turn Spot

Villain in the hand is Marccus85, he's very afraid of me and I make him sad on a regular basis. He's been playing me particularly aggressive this session and I suspect he may be on tilt.

Regardless, I'm fairly certain that with his line here he either has a flush, 33, AsXx (likely a pair) or total air. With his range being so polarized, what do you think the best course of action is here? If you choose to flat call the turn what is your river plan if checked to or if bet into.

I know it's a little boring but I think it's a spot worthy of some discussion.

Call - Call - Lead is a weak line and usually a bluff.

Does he have reason to believe you would check behind here?

I'd fold here. You're pretty smoked and if your Ks isn't good then you're really [censored] when he leads the river spade and you call or he c/r you on the river after you bet.

You don't think he could have a flush here?

Seems like a logical line for a draw to me.

Why not go for the check raise if villain is really strong?

That's why I asked if villain had reason to believe Too Eazy would check behind?

Isn't WA/WB usually super-passive mode?

Its a little tricky if a [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] falls on the river because you just sucked out on a good part of his range and fell behind the rest.

My knee jerk is to call down. But given stack sizes that's pretty much getting it in, and I hate calling shoves with weak hands. Yeah, I'm kinda torn.

Renton,

Would you fold to a river shove on a blank card?

A small flush would have to bet the turn wouldn't he? He wouldn't want to give a free card to a hand with like AsJc or whatever.
