I don’t expect Villain ever to be on a draw here, as he’s opening himself up to getting blown off of it. He’s probably bluffing most often, sometimes raising for thin value/protection/cheap showdown, and rarely with a monster. That kind of argues for just shoving the flop, but I’d rather do that with hands that will have at least some equity when called: bottom pair, a straight draw, etc. Since he’s often bluffing, I’m also going to flat call hands like AJ or KK, since they are mostly bluffcatchers at this point.
