$5 NL HE Full Ring: Fold AK to 89K Rainbow Flop?

Only had about 40 hands on villain, but he was very loose and very aggressive.

dealt to Hero (UTG)
Hero raises to $0.15, 3 folds, BTN calls $0.15, SB calls $0.13, BB folds

Flop: ($0.55) :8d4: :9h4:

(3 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $0.35, BTN raises to $1.55 Action Hidden

What do you do? I am thinking he called my p/f raise with something like 89s maybe and obviously hit, but it was hard to tell just because I had very limited hands on him. I don't think betting any more, maybe closer to a pot sized bet would have changed anything with the way he 3Bet me. Open to suggestions.

2 pair and sets are the problem here, worse K's and straight draws are the opportunity.

Even over a limited sample villain's stats are ridiculous, I'm not letting go of TPTK against this villain. In position, I might call w intent of shoving the turn barring straight cards, oop I re-raise flop intending to call a shove.

I agree with you completely. The thing that really put me off of the hand is that I had seen a couple people lead into him on the flop just as I did, and he would fold without a thought. But then for him to 3Bet me and the possibilities that are out there and I only have TPTK, my hand was very vulnerable.

tptk is the nuts against a 75/57 (even 40 hands is enough to definitively say 'laggy spewtard') - he will show up with all sorts of draws and KQ/A9-type hands, you're definitely ahead of his range.

random bluffs form a decent portion of his range too so on the face of it there may seem to be some value in calling flop and letting him commit himself on the turn. however, being oop and risking letting a draw see a turn and free river is a little silly though, so just shove flop - he's probably calling with everything in his range that isn't a total bluff anyway.
