I'd just fold and wait for a better spot, yes he can be over playing trips, a worse flush or even Ac6 but we are getting a lousy price to be playing guessing games, although villain is looking like a "fun" player with this crazy lead (so we can just stack him later :p)

I'd be interested to hear what other think about the flop, are we better off at least considering a check here on a board that is much better for villain range vs range and going for a delayed cbet?

Preflop
Standard open.

Flop
I like C-betting here. We can definitely get some better hands to fold, and its especially great, if we can get BTN to fold, because then we have position for the rest of the hand. Sizing wise I might go a bit larger, because we are looking for folds here not light floats from bad hands, that still beat us.

Turn
If BB actually turned a flush or even more a boat, why would he be so fast to shut his opponents out? This makes no sense, so to me this looks more like a hand with the naked ace of clubs turning itself into a wild semi-bluff. But on the other side you are getting a really bad price, you cant win his bounty, you lose to pretty much all other flushes, and the board is paired.

But even with all these negative factors, this still smell so much like BS to me, that heads-up I would make the call, and then I would just reenter, if I lose. However this is not heads-up. Which makes his move stronger and also create a risk, than even if you are "right" against BB, you could still be drawing completely dead against the guy behind you. And for that reason I think, I fold here.
