Hero: Looks about 35, white male, playing around $1400, new to this poker room
V: Looks mid 20s, played with him only once, was earlier today in a $1000 MTT, he played pretty tight but showed down a variety of semi-bluffs and a semi-bluff shove on the turn when short. He sat down with the maximum and seemed to know a lot of people on the table. He straddled from UTG for his first hand instead of waiting 1 hand and folded pre.
Co (second, less important villian): Looks about 35, seems tight (Stack around 700)
To the hand: (V's second hand)
CO opens to $20. I flat on button with 67cc, V calls out of BB.
Flop: AQ2ccc (pot = $60)
CO C bets to $30, I raise to $100. V (BB) cold calls, CO tank folds.
Turn: 7d (pot = $290)
Checks to me I bet $200 , V c/r's to $550 with about $300 left.
What do we do?
Can't really flat, so shove or fold?

Yesterday, first time ever, I was in a hand where three of us flopped a flush. Someone else had the nuts, I had the second nuts. I don't regret getting it in on the flop, cause I think they could have worse often enough. They were pretty fishy and I wasn't very deep stacked.
But I have no idea what the guy with the six high flush thought he beat.
In other words, easy fold.

I'm putting this villain all in immediately.
Are we really folding a flush easily?

He plays all his two pair and sets this way, based on your notes add some combos of KcQx, AxXc. Pretty standard to get it in

I would normally get it in but the small check raise on the turn with only a little left over usually means the nuts in a live game.Inwould discount semi-bluffs as he could have easily check-shoved and given you less direct odds to call.
