 -villain is pretty tagg 20/16 over 2k hands
-he seems most active, 3betting and 4betting a lot preflop, but his AF isn't that high at only around 2, though he definitely seems more aggro than this AF warrants
- I haven't had that many postflop battles with him lately, but def some preflop spewing matches
-this hand is early on the session, no reads or flow to this session yet

Call and make a note that he's terrible no matter what he shows. A6s and 8h6h are the only hands that makes sense.

Preflop went 4-way, so I'd expect him to call with a pretty wide range of hands pre given the odds he's getting. He probably has quite a few Axs type hands here I'd imagine.

I don't really think the K changes much at all.

Also, the flop is sooo draw heavy that I'd expect most people to raise their strong hands a fair amount on this flop, esp since I showed strength by betting into the field.

long answer short: I think if we were ahead on the flop, then we're still ahead, and I rarely expect to get c/bombed on this turn. But I need to bet to price the draws.

ding. i struggle with these spots but this is usually the correct answer. hes getting dece odds to call with T7s preflop, and its an ok chance to screwplay a set as well since c/r flop 4way on this board is gonna look mad strong.
