Default ace high turn raise

villain is 28/22/2.6 aggro but not maniacal

he's gonna 3-barrel worse hands so no i don't do this. i'd rather just call and fold a 7/T/J (maybe K/6 too) and call everything else.

yeah don't show a villain the FSD raise until he's shown you the river give up.

I dont like this raise, often when I see this c/c flop, bet turn line its either a cheap semi bluff or a weak made hand depending on the opponent.

Against the opponent you described its more likely to be a bluff/semi bluff type hand so I think its better just to let him fire away, he will often bet the river even when he misses so I'd prefer to call the turn and see what the river brings.

Against the type of opponent who does this with a weak pair then I like the raise if he's gonna fold a better hand, but this is obviously very read dependent and I really don't think that its the correct play here.
