I think it is a calldown.

You are getting 11:1 if I am correct, and he can easily raise hands like 8

, etc.

I guess you're debating 3-betting or calling down, right?

I think it's nothing but a calldown unless you have a maniac read apart from the stats. However, it's difficult to put him on a strong hand since he had all players trapped on the flop but he might not be thinking in those terms at all.

I am actually thinking about c/c the turn. Which line is better B/C or C/C?

Bet/call turn. You don't want to give Qx, Ax or spade draws a free shot at beating you.

When raised, it's an easy calldown, given villain's stats.

Against a player with these stats I am never folding regardless of river.

We can't do this because there are two players to act in between us and the CO.

I'd also bet the turn, but its close imo. I really don't like my hand much after getting called in three spots on that flop. After you get heads up with this guy, I'd call him down quite happily
