Default Re: Is this dreadful? 44 on Party 3/6

PF is pretty bad, I'd fold, and calling is better than 3-betting. Postflop is ok, Villain probably thinks your handrange is weighted towards AK-AJ so he may be valuebetting AK. I'd also consider a turn raise/fold, river freeshowdown since you'll get the same number of bets in vs overs as calling down, he may incorrectly fold overs, and its a easy fold to a 3-bet vs this Villain.

Preflop, I generally fold 66 or lower to a raise with someone yet to act behind me, especially when the raiser happens to be a TAG such as you describe.

Since you did play the hand, calling to the river doesn't seem bad to me, because it's very possible that every street missed him considering the range of overcards that he's likely to raise with.

If he raised a pocket pair or xT, you're screwed, but you might as well find out how badly.

Agreed. With one more player limping cold calling is the way to go. Here I would probably just toss 44 in the muck. 3 betting is wild maniac style.

After the flop calling down seems like a bad plan unless you have a read/note on the guy that he will keep firing with unimproved overcards.
