Poker Strategy Info And Source:
The WSOP Main Event attracts all types of poker players from around the world and in this analysis I cover a hand against a player who decides to open a very non traditional 4x from the Button.
I had noticed him splashing around whilst being sat at the table but who was being the splashier player here? I’ll let you decide!

What would YOU do preflop with 6♣5♣ facing a 4x open from the BTN against a splashy player?
Pot: 7bb
Our Stack: 186bb
Their Stack: 196bb
a) Fold
b) Call
c) Raise to 10bb
d) Raise to 13bb
Might be wrong, but amateurs tend to 4x raise with only a strong linear range (some do this nutted) so I think its an clear fold against this player type.
No need to be fancy..
Raise to 4k
is it too nitty to fold to a 4x raise especially OOP?
What if he raise on the turn?
Call
I would 3 bet to 3500 4/5 ths of the time, I use a randomizer I set before tournaments to do the passive calling play about 20 percent of the time to keep people guessing
The memes are crisp, hats off to whoever makes the editing.
I dont like to call in the small blind, so it is either raise to 4.2k or fold. It is nice to have some suited connectors as a 3-Bet bluff in your range for some boardcoverage. But when I bluff I prefer a hand that blocks atleast some of the 4-Bets.
So I would mainly fold and sometimes like 25% I would 3-Bet.
I completely agree with your analysis. You make a good point saying that we can bet turn for value/equity denial. However, I believe that a case could be made to check and fold vs large bets assuming you have a strong read that your opponent won't bluff enough and won't bet anything but a strong hand here. I'm guessing this is extremely player dependent.
