Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point
 Playing on a weird site... no tracker, hud etc.

Villain is weird. Earlier he raised like 20 hands in a row and 3-bet every openraise for like 10 minutes. He then folded like 40 hands in a row, only to go back to the manic mode. At the moment he seems to be calm, hasn't been raising/3 betting much.

In our only confrontation, I 3-bet him with A7 and called his shove over top of my c-bet on a 6-high flop. He rivered a J to take the pot down with J7o.

The site has no HH feature so he doesn't know what I had but he cleary knows he sucked out and has been avoiding me. Since that hand I've noticed him pop up on other tables and he's moved away from me a couple times when he was seated to my right.

I've stacked a fish or two and we are sitting pretty deep at 1-2 for this hand. I know he's been CR pretty light but he seems to be in a much nittier mode right now.

I am sitting with 550$, he covers.

I raise from the CO, he calls from BB.

Flop is

I c-bet 12 into 14, he inst CR to 45.

I think about it and make it 160.

He insta-shoves for 380 more.

How good/bad/standard is the flop 3-bet?

Maybe I'm just playing weakly at the moment, but is this an easy call?

Also, how would you play 444 here and would you prefer to have 4's or 78 here if you had the choice?
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

will641 is on a distinguished road
 given history and reads and how bat shit crazy this player is there is no way im ever folding. from what i understand of opp, he would do this with a set, a straight, probably any pp, TP, weaker 2p, draws, combo draws, and finally.....AIR!

I stack off here to almost all opponents, and even when I don't, I do.

(If that makes any sense)

stacking off every time here 250bb deep has to be a mistake. I think against this opponenet I would here though.
Flopping quads and boats like its my job

pocketfours will become famous soon enough
 I wouldn't have raised the c/r because so many combos will shove. I guess I would call here since villain is a donk, but I sure don't like it.

looks like a call. If hes thinking about his image at all (and it sounds like he is if hes adjusting periodically) then he could have stuff like AA/KK. He probably does this with Ahxh as well as maybe weaker flush draws and combo draws. I doubt he has a weak overpair or TP here but air is definately in there. Your earlier call with A high means he could be shoving medium overpairs and hoping for calls from 2 overcards, but id expect him to be alot tighter this time since its not a 3bet pot. If anything the insta-shove skews it more towards draws / air than a monster.
