First hand against villain. I just couldn't think of a hand that played this way (55 maybe?) we had blockers to 99 and I felt a hand like top pair would just call. Felt like he'd have a lot of air here but when I got snapped, I quickly searched him and realized that he was a single tabling fish.

My question, I guess this is spewy line here, but if there was no flush draw on this flop and villain was a reg, what would you do here?

Hi clawindsouza

Definitely check unknown players before taking lines like this (which are spewy and have high variance short term that can lead to tilt).

Now, assuming this is dry and player is a reg I can't see a lot of value but I also don't see what you'd rep with overbet shoving. Afterall would you shove AK there on a dry A95r board?

So you could bet/fold or bet/call and try to get it away from him later on.
