Fold idk why we need analysis here?
Agree this is just a sigh-fold. Terrible flop.
I don't think it's that simple and there are plenty of worse hands in villain's range.
just for example, this hand was played at 1/2/4, but I would argue the 5/10/25 game tends to be even crazier generally speaking on ClubWPTGold.
Anyway, I 4 bet out of the straddle to like 380 with aces and the 3 bettor calls. The flop is 789 rainbow. The 3 bettor shoves for 600 more. I call. The 3 bettor shows KT43 and I (amazingly) hold.
I guess V could have AhKJTr
It's less than a pot size bet -- would look even stranger/stronger to bet 1/3 or 1/2 his stack. Obviously he could be full of it, but I'm not going to find out.
Well, he’s not a thinking player? He shoves with a flush because it’s the best hand. He shoves with a set (or any 2p) because it beats AA, and if you have a flush he can still make a boat. He shoves with Ah-garbage because you might fold. He shoves because it’s the easiest thing to do, and it feels better in.
You’re over 3-1 v KJT9 and a tiny dog v 8765, so if his range is that wide, call getting 2.425-1.
I guess we need a solver. His range is any flush, set, 2p, straight draw (eg J765), or any other Kxxx. We can assume he would’ve 4bet AI with the other two aces pf.
It doesn’t matter what his hand is, it matters how ours is doing vs his range. We are either way behind here or flipping. There’s no scenario we are way ahead.
These aren’t the spots to gamble vs a maniac. Especially when we can’t top up to cover in a capped game
We are getting a really good price. Your logic is off.

If we are flipping it’s a huge print.

Let’s get a solver going? My range estimate fir V seems accurate based on OP’s posts.
