    Default spew or standard?

    At my stakes is this a spew? Villain 25/3 with agro post flop numbers. I've been cbetting like a monkey as per usual probably 100% for the table and he's 3 bet my cbet 2 times before both which I folded marginal hands. But his preflop stats still tell me that I don't think he has air here a lot.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (4 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($37.50)
    Hero ($109.65)
    Button ($9)
    SB ($67.45)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, 2.
    Hero raises to $2, 1 fold, SB calls $1.75, 1 fold.

    Flop: ($4.50) J, A, 9 (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $3.5, SB raises to $10.5, Hero calls $7.

    Turn: ($25.50) 4 (2 players)
    SB bets $13.5, Hero raises to $97.15

    I figured this deep flop is a call instead of 4 bet shove. Is the turn a call? and if so whats the plan for a blank river?

    if you dont think you have much FE with a 3 bet on the flop (doesnt have to be a push), then you probably dont have much FE on the turn. against the villian you described, i think just calling his raise on the flop is best, although i would 3 bet sometimes. as played, just call turn and fold/check behind if you miss.

    I would just use my position and call the turn.

    I think this is spew. I don't think you have a lot of FE and you lost a lot of equity after flop. You COULD be ahead, but I think he is ahead here a good amount. I think C/RAI flop is better if you are going to pull this move.

    The only hand we beat is pretty much drawing dead so lets play our draw.

    Yeah I probably overplayed it, he had AJ no spades, I just hate playing flush draws going call call fold blank river. I mean its pretty obvious when you go call call oh look spade hit I'm raising. If I 4 bet shove flop he's still calling anyway so I guess in this situation playing it passive is best, yuk.
