4) If we call, we have no clue where we stand and will be forced to fold to pressure on later streets a lot OR call down on safe runouts hoping V is bluffing.
5) Bet/3betting may get V to fold better hands like JJ/QQ and continue with worse hands (FDs) sometimes too.
6) It freezes the non-sets and we get to the river cheaply in position in case V decides to continue.
7) We can safely raise/fold without playing anymore guessing games.
Basically, V’s hand looks like a combo draw or nut flush draw here so just calling on safe boards is an option, but I think it’s weak and borderline stationy. I prefer to take control of the hand right now and find out where I’m at. He’s never 4bet shoving worse than a set here.
Also, I find it hilarious that people want to check back this flop because we got checkraised. So much results-orientation.
