at 0.25/50 this is a hard spot but i think i fold here. these sorts of huge overbets are rarely bluffs. you can find better spots than this

You MIGHT be ahead, but calling these huge overbets with only an overpair will cost you a lot of money in the end. I fold.

Without knowing that guy will overplay ovepairs, or top pair you would have to fold. There is nothign that you beat that a sane person would do this with, but most of the time I see someone do this they are bluffing or have a draw. In my experience from NL100 I would flip a coin and call.

I call here most of the time. Good players usually won't sacrifice the value with monsters, bad players will slowplay it more (generally). I think you're ahead here pretty often.

Hands include: straight draws, Tx, 8x, QQ-, AK/AQ, complete bluffs.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP ($129.30)
Hero ($131.90)
Button ($107.20)
SB ($139.70)
BB ($104.75)
UTG ($69.35)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises to $3</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $11</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls $10, MP calls $8.

Flop: ($33.50) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, MP checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $21</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $93.75</font>, MP folds, Hero calls $72.75.

FWIW, here is a situation that is similar to the OP's, but is different in enough ways to warrant a call IMO.

1) Villain cold-called a 3bet and is a 50/20 fish
2) Board is more coordinated and could potentially give his range more draws than OP's board
3) Stacks aren't 140bb deep, so the shove is about 1.5x pot
