baaa, stars sucks, nobody does this on pp.

Anyway, I agree with everyone that hero should throw in the towel. Also, I think it is dangerous for me to think too much about this hand. Thinking more could lead to following conclusions:

1) laying down to the flop overbet (weak)
2) checking behind on the turn (giving another free card).

Both of these options seem -EV longterm. In this hand we ran into a tricky opponent (or simply someone who hit the turn), that happens...

and if he is (still) overplaying his flush draw, then wow... would anyone here play Axs this strong?
