venice10 gives 27% based upon Hero putting in 26.3% of the money in the pot. A pot that hasn't been reduced by rake & toke. If they rake $10 & tip $2, Hero's $300 is 29.25% of the the money.
If V has a worse hand OTR 35% of the time, Hero profits:
$828 * .35 = $289.80
$300 * .65 = $195
Net +Ev $103.80.
V would have to be betting a broken flush or str8 draw OTR. I've had to call huge bets like this, but it was OTT, where there was a flush & str8 draw OTF & my lone V shoved OTT when the str8 came. Sometimes they were on the flush draw, sometimes they made their str8 & had a flush draw as a backup. Sometimes they just had top 2 pr vs my bottom set.
I find that the majority of when someone ships $300 OTR like this, without a hand, they're either a fish, on tilt, have deep pockets, or think I'm a pushover.
If I have already shown twice before that I can't be bluffed, I would strongly consider folding.
OP, if you have proven to be capable of folding to these kinda' rivers, where the board becomes really coordinated, I snap call vs. this LAG. However, only if, like venice10 says, I can take it in stride & press on.
That's extremely important.
