    Readless is really tough.  Just going on feel with the betting it just seems to me that this is never a bluff on the end.  To a player with some kind of thinking what do you have when you call the turn?  Hearts maybe but you should have something much more often.  Then they jam overbet.  Feels like they are happy with the spot to me so I would fold.  I am open to counter arguments though.

    Hi Dohhhhhhh


    For me it's not a call to the all-in.
     I would have made the CTN bet as the bet may glean some info. As it stands then i'd go into ch/f mode without at least a spade or ace on turn and dependent on opponents bet sizing.

    With your line you have alot of mid strength hands, 77-AA, also you could still have some kings you don't cbet.

    So villain is unlikely to be trying to get you off these with an overbet, more likely trying to induce a bad call from one of the above.

    Other reason this is a bad spot is you aren't getting much value on the call at all when he jams for 2.5x the pot..

    All signs point to fold

    if he bet <500 i think calling is fine, overbet jams on boards like that are rarely bluffs , not really many possible draws villain has that he can carrying on bluffing with so folding is fine

    I've probably got the best hand, almost every single better hand is gonna call me and almost all worse hands will fold (or make a play & make me fold) if I bet. Don't see much value in cbetting these boards. 

    Pot control innit. (bit of a fail though as the pot ends up totally out of control)   :(
