    Default Call down vs random fish

    Some of the shit I do when I 8 table is a little spewy sometimes so I'd like a line check here. Think this is marginal but possibly fine.

    Villain is 75/50 over 8 hands, note stack size etc. He seems really active sofar and could well be a spewy aggro fish, but lol sample size to confirm this.

    I flat out the BB since I think he's opening wide and will likely play like shit post flop. Don't love the defend but feel my post flopplay is good enough here that it'll be +EV.

    I flat flop as std and on the turn I decide I need to make a decision for the rest of his stack.

    Basically, a guy with a high aggression frequency and this stack size who barrels this turn lightly this size is going to be shoving the rest in on the river loads of the time so I don't think I can fold even this river after I call turn. So yeah noone tell me to fold river cos the flush got there!

    The question is whether I call turn here vs this sizing without more info. I do think there's a good chance he doesn't play most of his weaker Kx this way and has a good bit of random fish spazz/air he's gonna barrel off with.

    Thoughts?

    I would be kinda surprised, if anyone would agree w/ this. I basically don't see any reason for calling turn.

    - ok his staksize + stats looks retarded, but he can also be scaremoney nit on hotrun, and even monkeys can make hands sometimes (this probably sounds nitty, but cmon its just 8 hands and this calldown is so bad, if your read is wrong). I would c/f turn
