not much info about macapoa but he seems a little bit loose... It feels like it is to tight to fold here but maybe i am wrong... and calling doesn't feel right either....

As "K" combos were reduced drastically I would pay this donk bet or even do re-raise to block a possible flush draw running. You'd 6 outs and a backdoor flush and good equity to pressure him.

In my opinion, the final result of such hand, isn't important, as keep aligned with the strategy and play when we have had good equity is essential to win in a long run.

The only problem in this case is that if you call will invest 1/4 of your stack with Ahigh and if you face another bet have to fold if not improve. I don't believe that is a big mistake to call here since i don't expect that he has something on this flop but you will have a tough decision on turn. So i think i fold here

Cumps ;)

I know the result doesn't matter but i agree with MAYb3n0T and calling is not a option because i need a good turn to continue. So i think the question is 'Are people (semi)bluffing her enough to shove here?'

Even if you think he semi bluffed a lot it’s the question he will ever fold a flush draw on a board like this if you shove. I don’t think that’s the case and that makes bluff shoving not a good option for me.

Unfortunately that's the case. There is little chance that he is folding. He is actually doing this because he enjoys the thrill of it....either making you fold with 79s or winning the "flip". Against that mindset we really need to make a expoitative fold i think, because we can get them later in a better spot for us.

I dont want to gamble so early, vs a player or (other players) that are bad on the basics.
We will be given suffecient chances even on low blind or further with our ICM-edge towards fishy/spewy villains.

well played
