have about 9000 with blinds at 75 - 150. have K4 on the button make raise to 400. called by small blind. small blind has bluffed quite a bit in position but have yet to see him play a big pot. also showed one hand where he tried to slow play top set.
flop is 3 4 4. i bet 700 and get called. next card is a 5. he bets 1800 i call. final card is a 7 he moves all in.
for my whole stack about 5K now. what should i do?

can't see how you wouldn't call.

Kick yourself for not moving in on the turn.

throw up in your mouth a little, then call.

then, its a tough call, but i still make it because he's a known bluffer. i call and hope to see 88 - JJ. If he shows you 66 or 77, you kick yourself again.

i took the opposite approach and folded but regret it now. first big pot i had seen him play. but the more i think about it i beleive he was capable of making a bluff or having an overpair. also he may have slowplayed a 6. getting 2 -1 on the call should have happy with busting there. seems alot of players who win these events dont mind busting early.

also when i say he was a known bluffer he usually only made one bet in position then did not go further.

Yeah, just calling on the turn puts you in a really rough spot. I like yur fold on the end though. A straight is far too likely. I'd push the turn, but if I hadn't I'd probably fold on the end.

Following the action throughout the hand. Which hands could he conceivably hold which include a six? Now how many other hands could he conceivably hold which match this action and do NOT include a six?

I think 65s is possible though he might have lead on the flop with it. 66 obviously. 76 is less likely but possible.

As for hands he can convievably hold that don't hold a 6? A full house or a total bluff only, with a bluff being unlikely deep in the hand for all his chips on a scary board. With Hero calling the turn he'd have to be pretty crazy to bet anything that wasn't a straight or couldn't beat a straight because hero could have a 6. Thugh it's always possible.
