It depends on a lot on SB. How is a LAG calling out of the SB to begin with? I'm probably folding if V has a strong image. Calling with pairs.
What Stupidbanana wrote. It is almost as if he was waiting for this to happen. I really need more information. From my computer, I fold.
I actually think KJs is too strong a hand to 3bet-fold, but it's not strong enough to 3bet and call a 4bet.
Consequently, I'd likely fold or call the first time around.
Keep in mind BB can't call and close the action like normal due to straddle so it plays closer to an SB vs. BTN range which makes it a clear 3bet fold spot imo. I think well played but now fold to the limp 4bet.

That action is confusing, since the UTG straddler seems to have disappeared.

I don't see a fold the first time around. The SB flat is weird but it's not that weird. Wouldn't call either not closing the action. I don't really get the first part either. What are we 3!/folding if not stuff like suited broadway kings and the wheel aces we're not bluffing off? Seems fine as played, now fold.

Hands worse than suited Bdwys. Our range should be polarized on a steal attempt, not condensed.
FWIW, I know I'm not bluff- squeezing enough out of the blinds.
If I were a crusher, I assume I'd be successfully squeezing at times with hands like KTo and QJo, which can still win post-flop, even if our EV is likely neg. when our PF 3-bet is called.
I would snap fold this. Not even a second thought. I also would never call preflop the first time.
Sorry, I forgot about the straddle. The straddle folded.
I called V's 4-bet.
Flop was 6h5h2c
V shoved and I folded.
KJs is trash. The math on expected outcome for that hand in particular is bad.
You call and what's a good flop for you? Even a 3 spades isn't great as he could have an ace. He has a lot of AK, AQ, AJ, KQ, there. Even if you hit, you might be out kicked
Id' just call there.
Pre is fine, now fold to the 4bet ainec. He's likely trapping with something.

^This.
SB flat was suspect from the jump. We should still raise, but once he back raises, he's announcing he was trapping.
Unless we have some sort of meta going with this guy, easy fold. Can't call off >1/3 stack pre.
Technically, it is a good spot for SB to make a play, but he probably has AA/KK in practice. If you were deeper, you could call with this hand knowing that.
