 Just sat down and this was my first hand. Villain is a complete unknown. Should I have done anything different? Just wanna know if this standard or not.

Clear fold on the reraise imo

edit: so as to not seem like as much of a prick, what I meant was it's a clear fold to me because the villain is unknown; that's a big part of this equation to me.

 Calling the 4bet only to fold to a safe flop is bad.

Since there's no read that this villain 4bets light, I give it up pre. Especially since yer OOP.

You have nowhere near set odds here. Calling the 4-bet makes no sense at all if you're not going to call the flop here.

Are you hoping a guy who 4-bets will check it down postflop?
Just playing to improve.
