 guy just sat down bought in for this amount.

I'm guessing this is just a standard muck until we get some sort of read right?

(sorry if this is a bad hand to post I've just been going through some weird variance where about 9/10 times on the river I get shipped on by these guys and always end up with a hand that I wanna showdown yet can't really stand an overbet...)

only a gutter or better 2 pair got there, but I would think he'd just keep betting an ace..which leads me to think this is a busted flush draw or worse 2 pair/chop pretty often. thoughts? this kinda makes me want to call..but the price is terrible

dun think I can fold. Fishy buy in amount, fishy donk lead on A high flop and you have the second nuts. Looks too much like he is turning whatever one pair he has into a bluff.

 Folding, this is such a mega value line. I see no reason for him to randomly turn one pair (especially top pair) into a bluff ever. It feels gross, but I feel this is very, very rarely a bluff nor a thin value shove. Yeah the more I think about this, the more it's definitely a fold.
