Party 15 game. Villain is a typical LAG for this game, but not a maniac (i.e. roughly 45/15/1).

10 handed
I attempt to steal in the CO with Ac3c.
Villain 3-bets from Button.
BB calls, I call.
Flop = Ad7c6s

I haven't played the Party 15 (yet), but if I came across this hand at either the lower limits I play online or in a live 15 or 20 game I would think this river is just a very simple call.

Villain's a lag. He'll three-bet to isolate here with some crap knowing that you'll steal. Only concern for me is that some stuff you are beating might check the river behind if it has showdown value. But a lot of overly aggressive players will just keep betting down without thinking of whether their bets have value.

Regardless of missing the flush draw, if you don't call a 45/15 with top pair of aces, you're not saving any bets, you're losing pots.
