Flip a coin on C/C the river. He either does or doesn't have AAxx. With his raising frequency I'd lean towards calling.

This river isn't iffy in the way you think it is, sure villain can have AAxx sometimes for rivered top set, but the biggest part of villains range that improves a lot on this river is flopped/ turned pair+NFD that is now 2p OTR.

I guess I am bad but I would fold pre since the inital raiser is utg. he might come back over the top after you cold call if he has AA and not sure how well this hand plays to 4b 3 way. One of them will probably have better run down and also could have higher flush draw with K or A spades. But as played I would lead out on the flop. That A is death for me I would pretty much check fold here for me.

I think you need to bet out on this flop. It gets checked through pretty often 3 way. I think the river is actually a pretty decent card for you. A laggy guy is going to jam a massive portion (maybe even 100%) of his non-showdownable hands on this card vs a check.

So bluffcatch the river then? FWIW I thought the A was a good card to bluff catch on as well.
