Hey guys,

Villain is aggressive brazilian player.

Should I check behind the turn?
I can agree villain having some Qx hands or had he flopped the nut flush playing c/c flop and turn and shoving river for value?
Is this supposed to be a easy fold otr?
I'm so confused

folded btw, then later busted with aces vs him on J7x7 (he had Q7 in bb)

well not to belabour the obvious but you have yourself a bit of a bluff catcher here. so is villain bluffing half (well 46% or w/e) the time? it would probably be a snap fold but the fact that he is brazilian gives me pause

Check turn would been better.
His line make not much sence to me tough.

As played V should C/R the turn to protect the hands he representing i think.

Villain pot sized bet earlier in the tournament.
Looking at this hand, it just confuses me even more about the original hand.
I think I should've called here.

Pot control and yes V would not have taken this line otr.
He could easy have C/R you ott and you would need to fold a hand you hate to fold.Checking on this dangerous board makes your life more easy otr.
