This is a classic classic "lolFR" spot.

When the TAG continues into a 3-way pot against two players who both have strong ranges, then it's immediately like "Oh holy ****, time to pot control with TP2K." [1]
If V is good, then he's giving our 3/4 PSB turn bet a TON of credit. Of course, I think V is also an LLSNLer who doesn't have a full appreciation of how strong our range is and is probably more focused on, "Lol, my image so splashy, he'll never suspect my Aces here, mwahahaha." So I'm not encouraging a fold, but I think it's important to recognize how nitty you can be in an EPvMP TAG-reg battle.
[1] Of course, I myself haven't regged those games in 4.5 years, and I believe things have loosened up considerably, but that has nothing to do with this spot.
