$2/$5 blinds, 9-handed at the casino. Most players are deep (over $600).

Villain ($350) - 50 year old Kiwi man. Somewhat drunk. Seems like a recreational player. Loose passive.

Hero ($600) - Early 20's Aussie guy. SLAG image.

4 limpers
Hero raises to $40 on BTN with KQo
Villain calls $40 in BB
3 of the limpers call $40

Flop ($190, 5ways) is KT9r

Villain donk shoves $310
3 folds
Hero ???

This is a very tough decision at the table. Its almost impossible for anyone not at the table to decide.

You have almost the exact amount of equity to call vs T9
If he would ever do this with a pair and gutshot...KJ/QT/JT type hands then you have to call. I dont think a loose passive player makes that kind of move, but hes also drunk which is a contradiction.

Loose passive players tend to play pretty straight forward when they do make a big hand. They bet and raise big when they know they're ahead. They check and call when unsure. I think it's a fold without having more info on the guy. It seems unlikely that he would overbet shove into 3 opponents without having at least top pair good kicker beat.

Great raise size pre, and with a hand that does well against limpers.

It's horrible when he donk jams 3x~ pot. Villains raise 99 and TT themselves pre so that isn't really in their range, I would expect to see QJo A LOT in this spot.
