Did i get carried away here?
The villain i have history with, he is loose and loves playing pots with me..
Am i just destined to get stacked or can i save some chips?
I know the preflop call is speculative but i have the button..
It is very rare for me to get stacked off when this deep and i feel a little silly...

    It is a cooler but when he 4 bets you then alarm bells have to start ringing.

    I don't mind a bit of pot control by flatting when he c/r's you.

    You are going to fold out alot of hands you are beating and get heavy resistance from hands you are behind to...

    I'm never folding here ever, fwiw I'm 3 betting the flop as well to get value from sets/AsX type hands and to make sure we can get stacks in 200bb's deep.

    Added to the fact that he is loose then its a insta fist-pump call when he shoves.

    There's only 2 cards that beat you... if he's that aggro he'll be doing that, as people said, with a set or weaker flush. It's unlikely if he had a set he'd put you on a flopped flush, for both of you to flop it and for him to have one of the two possible cards that beat you is pretty unlucky really... I think mostly you're gonna be stacking him in this spot, his range of hands he could go allin with there which don't beat you I think are higher than the ones which do.
