Villain is new to the table and i have no stats on him. He instaraised me all-in on the flop....i figured he probably had Ax of hearts, a higher overpair or nothing. What do you guys think?

Insta-fold without a read.

I'd have 3-bet PF, though.

I don't like flat calling pre,to then lead flop and fold to a shove.

If you call preflop I would be either:

Check-fold flop
Check-raise flop
Check-call flop
Bet flop and call a shove

By betting flop and folding to a push you lose a cbet if he decides to fold his overs/bluff but also allow yourself to get pushed off the best hand if he turns his overs into a bluff on flop.

So basically, Wota, you are saying that calling PF is OK if we do any of the 4 actions you mentioned, but 3-betting PF is OK if we are leading out the flop?

Yes. I honestly don't think calling or 3betting is better here, each has it's own merits.

Here having called preflop I go for the check-raise flop and call all in.
He's an unknown and first to act so his range is pretty debatable but even if we put it at AQ+ and TT+ and think he cbets every time with all these hands then we have good enough odds to get TT all in. If it is 22+, AJ+ and KQ or soemthing we have even better equity.

I would put a default push range on this flop as 44, 55, 99+, A9h+, and maybe AK. If we 3-bet PF and he 4-bets us, then that range can be narrowed as I would put him on TT+, AQh+, and maybe AK.

I don't have PokerStove installed at work so I can't figure out our equity here. Do these default ranges look reasonable?
