Villain is 31/4/1.4 and seems to be generally bad, but have never seen him just insta push or anything. What does a somewhat clueless fish have here most of the time?

you dont have the nutt flush draw which = insta fold imo. villian can easily have you drawing to a 3 outer. and considering your luck has been pretty bad lately, i wouldn't play many drawing hands. if the ace was a diamond, huge difference, but since its a heart, laydown is the only option.

Ugh.

I misread this as me having the nut flush draw. I did this a bit earlier and forgot why I folded so easily.

I have a lot of trouble reading these hands as there is just so little information to work with. I think it has to be a fold.. and i have no clue what random fish does this with.. if i had to guess i would say probably 2pair>Ax>dd+pair>set.. but there is frankly no way to know so its a **** spot and we have nothing but variance right?

Not having the nut draw makes this an easy fold, especially considering he could have the nut draw with top pair.

Let's assume the board was actually A

giving you the the royal draw, I still think it's an easy fold v. a guy with those stats.

I think you need at least 45% equity to call, and I don't see it happening if his range is AJ/AQ/AK and sets. Can't think of any other holdings that might fit into his range given the way he played the hand. Even if you know he has weaker Aces in his range, I think it's a fold.

Be good,

dangit someone close this I read it wrong and thought I had the nut flush draw.

I didn't read it wrong while playing the hand and did fold.

Ehh,

That I would say is probably true as well, which is why I put probably easy. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't leaking bad by folding this without even thinking about it.
