I don't have any reads on Villian. He just joined the table. Do I call his all in? The villian raised instantaneously after my bet.

Yeah, call. Only 2 hand combinations that you should be worried about (A4, 44). All other hands that beat you, will 3bet you preflop like 95% of the time. Don't think any of those just ship flop either.

It's an odd all in otf... When a bigger stack raises you all in otf, it's most likely an indication he has a draw.
He would'nt have played the nutz like that (any A 4 or 44). Any other nut hans are like jackhighftw said 3bets pre.

Ask yourself, "Would I have posted this hand had I won it?

He is almost always going to have a flush draw and as long as it wasn't the nut flush draw you are going to be slightly better than a 60/40 favorite so you should call.
