With no read i am 50/50 on the fold or call/checkin it down for cheap since i think he is screaming a 5 or AJ

I fold pf. Amount is a bit too big to setmine.

I would fold preflop, but post those bet sizes are weak and just screaming to be raised, I probably call down or even raise the turn to like 350-400, it looks super strong and you could fold out some medium pairish hands beating you as well as overcards obviously.

I fold preflop too, primarily to avoid these spots where you don't really know where you stand. No need to lose chips yet..

I would call that preflop only out of BB and maybe SB if there are other callers. As played, I would call the turn because of pot odds and no scare cards.

I would fold preflop.

As played, call flop, fold turn. Three streets of OOP agression from MP, I think all we beat here is AK
