Villain has been really loose over 19 hands. Stats 42/5/0.

I guess I should be calling any two pre due to pot odds given?

Villain raises big on flop, already knew he was holding a big hand since he hadn't been 3betting earlier. My guess is his range contains a lot of Ax and some pockets 99-AA (blocking AA though).

How easy of a fold is this on flop?

42/5 is not only loose, but mainly its passive.

Guess you still need to call pre, because odds. But Im not thrilled, quite frankly considering a fold here.

Flop, obviously an atrocious bet by villain. Makes no sense to bomb with a made hand, but also makes no sense to bomb with a bluff. Long story short, passive players dont bet like that with nothing. They also are pretty nutty when 3betting, even if its just a click it back. I dont think youll see even close to enough worse hands to continue here. Which is also why I dont mind folding pre. Even with sick odds, you only feel good with 2pair or a strong draw.

Bizarrely, it can't be that far from a fold to the 3 bet preflop

I probably end up half pot bet/folding this flop. These kind of guys are going to absolutely ram a strong hand on every street so we should be able to get away immediately if we're beat.

As played a check/fold is fine - I just wonder if it gives up value and advantage to a KK/QQ that will probably check/call all the way down but might find a bet on the turn/river without us leading at any point.
