Default NL50: What would you call here with?

Let's try something different...

Villain is 19/7 with AF 0.6 over 115 hands. What is the weakest hand of your calling range here and what is the worst hand you'd raise for value?

Quote:
$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
4 players

Stacks:
CO ICALLNUTS ($49.25)
BTN Hero ($64.65)
SB dsqaris64 ($51.10)
BB wafello ($86.55)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 4 players) Hero is BTN
1 fold, Hero raises to $1.50, dsqaris64 calls $1.25, 1 fold

Flop: J:club: Q:diamond: 5:club: ($3.50, 2 players)
dsqaris64 checks, Hero bets $2.50, dsqaris64 calls $2.50

Turn: 6:diamond: ($8.50, 2 players)
dsqaris64 checks, Hero bets $6.50, dsqaris64 calls $6.50

River: 8:club: ($21.50, 2 players)
dsqaris64 bets $16
PS. I kept accidentially making that annoying 3bb preflop raise all the time in 6max too, I'm just so used to it. I guess it's OK for button but anyway.




Spoiler:
I literally snapfolded top two here and if I'm folding that I should be folding sets too, ldo.

To call: a floosh

To raise: a ten-high or better floosh

sounds about right; probably queen high flush or better for me to raise.. It really does seem like he was on a flush draw with a pair. I guess I don't really go for thin value, that may be part of my game that I have to work on a bit more.. I can see how doing a small raise here, like 2x, but with a wider range, could pay off.

I know that that is a low aggression factor. I remember hearing that less than 2 would be considered on the passive side. However, what is the formula for calculating that number?

This an ovbvious fold unless you've got some kind crazy-LAG dynamic going at that table. As for a range... any flush, and the nut straight. Sets are definitely a fold. I was really proud of myself for pitching my bottom-set on a KATss against a nitty opener that had 3bet. Don't recall the flop action but we did get to the turn (A), and he just shoves.

Does it really matter if he has 0.6 AF over 115 hands?

Anyway, what I was most interested in is how you'd play T9 or a low (like 7 high) flush here... Are they both just a call or is small flush losing too much value that way?
