what doesn't make sense about his line?
sets, overpairs, Ax all can do that.

anyways, no i don't think you should fold here. i C/C the turn btw.

I just couldn't see him checking behind on the flop with a set/straight with the flush draw out there.
And if he's drawing to a flush, I would expect him to semi-bluff this flop nearly everytime.

As for the turn, how often does Ax (with the x not being a 6,7, or 9) raise this?

i think it's wrong to assume opponents would play the hand like how you would play it.

maybe he had Ah8c

edit: that's a pretty dumb comment. wow i suck at poker.

 His line makes a whole lot of sense. These guys call with anything suited and will check/call down until they hit their hand lots.
