I was really stumped on what to do with this one. Part of me was tempted to shove over the top because the villain being a little on the fishy side. I must be easily scared off by raises like this.

Other stats that may be useful for villain:
Fold to CB: 43% (28)
Raise CB: 18% (28)

That raise CB looks a little high to me. Which looking at it now in hindsight makes me think I was perhaps ahead and that maybe he had an A with a weaker kicker or perhaps an K with a flush draw as well. I can't really be certain.

Chances are here that he has a weaker Ace, I think he would 3 bet pre-flop with A/K, set of fours is unlikely, A/4s is the most likely hand I think that would do this but judging by those stats that you have of him I would call the flop and re-evaluate the turn. I think once you call the flop you should be prepared to get it all in. Can't say I would be pleased about folding/or getting it all in tbh but I am leaning towards the all in approach.

if it was me i would definatly call his raise. you have top pair with k q kicker. your probably 75% chance to win this hand.

You mean a spewy limptard is trying to give you his chips?

Check/call it down. Only fold I could see here is running hearts. Also 3b pre could've been a bb lighter imo.

Dude probably had A-4

Could be an aggressive move with much less. Somehow I doubt it though.

I shove.
He didn't 3bet preflop so he rarely has AK/KK/AA. This will be a flush draw, a gutshot or a weak ace.

The weak aces are unlikely to fold to a shove with the flush draw out there, whilst the flush draws we want the money in now.

Yep. Plus those flop stats are crazy. He never folds postflop.

This. Ship it, fist pump. A4 and 44 are the only part of his range here that we are in trouble against, but they're a pretty small part of his range that he stacks with here. Weaker A's, KhXh, SD/FD combo's make up the bulk of his range, imo.

My first thoughts when reviewing the hand myself just after the session were that I should either shove over the top or fold and that it's going to be a close call.

I did end up folding this hand but in the future I guess I now know to shove it. Cheers!
